How a tiny minority who believe as you do...

Have you noticed how you're the only one arguing your position against a lot of Freepers?

If the Islamaniacs are allowed off the hook by the reclamation of power by the RATmedia it would take yrs and many thousands of lives to remove them.

Oh, come on! Neither the media nor the terrorists are all that effective - ever heard of 'the Hassan factor'? But even if your feverish imaginings were true, we do have years and, if necessary, 'thousands of lives' available to us. What we don't have is the luxury of letting 'The Real America' slip away because we're afraid to own up to a mistake.

On any given subject there are a few posters who are fixated on it. There have been Civil War threads where I have been arguing almost singlehandedly against a group to which that is a principle subject of interest. Most posters just give up arguing with them since they are very difficult to communicate with on a rational basis. I am foolish enough not to give up. However, that does not mean I am the only one here who believes as I do.

This is true with this issue and most of the conversation is between a few people. Most are at the very extreme of FR and not at all representative of FR. (Not that I am claiming I am either.)

No, I have not heard of the "hassan factor." But unless terrorism is confronted now it will be almost impossible to eradicate in the future. As it is it will be a decades long struggle thanks to the RAT destruction in the 90s. Anything which assists RAT return to power is anti-American.

Hyperbole is generally inappropriate and a good example is equating a AWB with losing the "real America." It is just silly to think that.
