And so vm and Liv, we seem to have a stand-off here ..... for want of a better term I shall call it a mutual admiration society 
PS: While I'm at it, another byproduct of my age is ofttimes missing a answered post do to my general slowness and so without intent I miss posts that should in all fairness and recognition have been answered. So if anyone goes to the trouble of answering a post by me only to have it seemingly ignored then please be assured it was not by intent. |
I have some of questions, did you serve in ww2, as what and where?
I agree that being open is the easiest thing in the long run, because it results in less misunderstandings.
I think that when someone proposes evil, we must oppose it, but hat we should not escalate violence unless it is truly necessary. Should hitler have been opposed with force, in hindsight yes. Certainly, his laws making jews second class citizens should have been opposed. I think we should lambast and make fun of evil dipshits like coulter, but until she runs for office on a platform of lets kill the arabs, I dont think that we should do much more than heckle and of course never buy anything by her.
