I stand by my original post: You said: "911". Now a fairly insignificant event????

The in your most recent post to me you now assert the 911 event is insignificant

Me- You sincerely believe this?? I know of a whole country who'd disagree with you here, particularly the 3,000 families directly effected.

Your statement is absolutely appauling. Disgusting behaviour on your part which is quite unacceptable. Many a person would do physical harm to you had you said this to them in person. Making comments like these, you should be more worried about your personal security than you seem to be. Or perhaps you are far less willing to express such foul dropping in public than you are to disgrace this fine forum. It's far to easy and cowardly to sit behind your keyboard and monitor and spew that unforgivable HorseHillary. Take it somewhere else

...911 event is insignificant...

Absolutely! Compared to the way you pseudo-conservatives are lining up to swap your rights for the pretense of security, that event is insignificant!

Would you tell those who died in this Nation's wars that their sacrifice to safeguard your freedoms was "nice and all of that", but I'm going to trade those freedoms so that I can feel secure?

I will make this point face to face with anyone. I will indeed defend the Constitution against all enemies, including your ilk! Look around, dude! You are giving away all for which those people died! I would not want my death to cause this Nation to discard its way of life just because some loopy enemy killed me. Do you think you serve their honor, both soldier and innocent victim, by trading away the life they once had? I don't think they would condone the use of their own deaths as the instrument of abdicating the Rights enumerated in the Constitution.

Grieve them? YES! Avenge them? YES! Remember them? YES! Honor them? YES! Throw away blood-won rights and freedoms for them? NEVER!

Is none of this getting through to "your kind"? Are you actually reading my posts for comprehension?

Disgusting behaviour on your part which is quite unacceptable.

You repeat this. I have not displayed disgusting behaviour. You are unable to cope with frank discussion. You are from the "I'm OK, You're OK", "touchy-feely" class of bed-wetters. The people who died on 911 are no more valuable than those we send to die to protect our way of life. Don't make these deaths go in vein. The Nation survives because of this sacrifice.

Veiled threat? I will speak thusly in any public forum. I have sworn to defend the Constitution. Have you?

I am pretty sure you do not understand what I am saying. I shall try to type slowly so that you might be able to follow:

The 911 event is insignificant when compared to the willingness on the part of Americans to exchange their rights and freedoms for false security. You do know how to parse grammar, don't you? This does not say that the 911 event was insignificant. It uses a "tall standard" to describe the towering significance of your rights and freedoms.

I'll even try another method. Loss of life at the WTC: 3000+. Loss of life to purchase your rights and freedom: Revolutionary War, War of 1812, Civil War, the Spanish-American War, WWI, WWII, Korean War, Vietnam and countless other conflicts whose numbers I'm not inclined to look up at this time. The 3000+ loss, though great, is not significant in the total scheme of things. Are you ready to discard the rights that were bought and paid for by the blood of your countrymen? Is this loss you have witnessed personally more significant that all the other losses you have not personally witnessed? Are you so sure that the proper response to the WTC incident is abdication of your rights and freedoms?

Do you understand my drift now?
