I thought that the guy had the flag in a rather questionable position.
Relative to the two orange-suited GITMO prisoners, you could tell that neither of them was used to having their ideas challenged. You could see thinly-veiled anguish on their faces as they mentally grappled for anything to refute my arguments and failed badly.
I appreciated that neither of the two reacted with the rage that often is leftists' response to reasoned, calm arguments. Both were quite nice people. I hope that my reasoning planted a seed and that they will eventually reconsider their misunderstandings of the world.
Yes, they weren't hardened yet, and you were also very polite to them. A great interview.
