"If the Marines that you contend that he endangered (they apparently did not feel endangered) can forgive him and YOU cannot, it is you I pity."

Who said anything about forgiveness? The "man" didn't do anything to me. Consequently, I do not have the power to forgive him. If you have no understanding of forgiveness, it is yet another reason to pity you.

"When you are rude, insenitive [sic], and wrong and apologize, you have honor.

When you are rude, insenitive [sic], and wrong and try to place the blame on others, you are a cad and a lout."

So, setting a vehicle on fire (a vehicle you do not own), setting yourself on fire, endangering the owners of the vehicle, bystanders, and rescue personnel, is merely "rude and insensitive"? That's a bit of an understatement.

"I see you are new here. If this format does not suit you, you are free to leave and not come back."

"This format" does not require me to agree with your point of view, mollycoddle your ignorant "sensitivities", or celebrate your lack of a discernible sense of humor. I appreciate your recognition of my freedoms, and remind you that you have the same freedoms available.

I stand by my comment, you are a jerk and an insensitive lout. Trying to justify your tasteless comment with equally uninformed and boorish comments only serves to prove my point.
