You should have considered such with the derogatory remark you made, concerning the pilots decision to eject, in the first place.......
Your remark as follows:
"Not a good, nor an honored way, to ditch your fighter plane!"........103 posted on Friday, April 06, 2012 12:27:14 PM by IbJensen
Everything thereafter was in response to that statement and rightfully so....which had nothing to do with ones education, (not even a nice try), nor "engaging in intelligent discourse" and zip-zero evidence it was no more than an unjustified, premature, remark against the pilot.
Your statement ,and that without knowing the situation or the facts of...remains the same...it was "idiotic"...and gave zip zero evidence of any desire for "intelligent discussion" as you now claim in order to excuse your remark....and attempting to do so is deceptive at best.
Claiming further , after the fact,, to be a Pilot yourself and serving or not in Korea does not excuse the remark...in fact if true, you should have known better than to jump to the conclusion you gave in that remark.
We could go on and on, I suppose, and continue to parse the words of an old man (me) until we get blue in the face and have to be resuscitated, but what's the use? Since this is the hill on which I don't wish to die, I must do something that's against my oath: surrender.
Believe me, whoever you are, intelligent discussion is not what we have both regurgitated on this site. Rather we have engaged in picayune sophomoric twaddle.
No. Go to Church, grab your Easter basket and eat until you get a tummy ache.
