Quite unnecessary to apologize! I couldn’t possibly agree more!
I want these communist "progressives" to know that they're crossing a line wherein a "civilized" response can no longer be considered a compassionate response. I also want "compassionate" conservatives to understand that too. If reason doesn't take a strong stand against insanity when a soft approach has failed then at some point reason will hold no sway over anyone.
When faced with unrestrained madness many a moral and ethical person will find it hard to keep their bearings. To put it another way; it isn't possible to live with insanity and give it a place of acceptance and prominence along with things like honor, honesty, loyalty and the like. IOWs the beneficial ideals of rational thought and action. That reduces all concepts of behavior to the chaos of indefinable meaninglessness.
