Mr. Kimball,

When dealing with the morally barbaric, civility is not necessarily the order of the day. I am reminded of passage in 'Atlas Shrugged' where Hank Reardon hosts a rather elegant party at his house to pamper his wife.

She invites a whole room full of intellectual anti-business types who gripe and complain about Reardon the entire time they drink his booze, and scarf down his chow. Like these buffoons, the parasites at LewRockwell.parasite.org are living off the benefice of others.

There are many reasons why people feel secure enough to invest the colossal sums of money required to build buildings like the WTC. Some of those reasons drive M1 Tanks, some drive submarines, a few fly M-16's or B-2's.

Without those reasons, the WTC would never have been ruined, because no one would have felt safe enough to build anything higher than two stories. Like you, I find my ability to discourse civilly with the likes of Lew Rockwell constrained.

It's like having a face-to-face with Bill Clinton the morning after he's sexually molested your daughter or wife. You measure your words carefully, because that's the only way you get through the encounter w/o chocking the evil SOB.

Now, I'm losing my capacity for civil discourse. There is something about being face to face and belly to belly with unmitigated human depravity that does that to a man.
