Your second sentence does not follow from your first. Making the connection would require making an argument of some kind.

In that vein, I will refer you to the second paragraph of my comment at #146.

Does your handle refer to Dr. Frank of the Mr. T Experience? You've inspired me to break out my copy of Everyone's Entitled to Their Own Opinion. I haven't listened to that in a long time.

In that vein, I will refer you to the second paragraph of my comment at #146.

The argument you make in post #146 goes to the conclusion that one's chances of dying from lightning are higher than from a terrorist attack. I never denied such a thing in the first place.

The actual claim of yours that I denied was that the government's actions since 9/11 have been "an overreaction". You did not, and still haven't, made an argument in support of this claim.

Does your handle refer to Dr. Frank of the Mr. T Experience?

Yup.. :-) I used to just use "Dr. Frank" but then he got on the internet himself so I had to have FR change my handle... sometimes people assumed I was him..
