I did't say your comments were absurd. I said that someone that said another Freeper that believed that these sniper attacks could be AQ finally making good on their threats this past year to attack Americans in exactly this way, is absurd.

I didn't call you a liar, either. I said I didn't believe an "average Joe" conservative would call another conservative a "paranoid fool" in the face of real, credible threats. There's a difference.

My apologies....I misread/misunderstood.

This "terroism becoming normal way of life," is probably too unnerving for many; they want to keep their heads in the sand, disbelieving what their common sense or gut instinct tells them.

For others, to some extent, their refusal to believe that the sniper is a terrorist is valid, in that we have had snipers, serial killers, copy cat sickos living amongst us in the past. We "breed" them and always will, just like every other country will have the same evil/sick people, unfortunately. And I think our liberal laws allow them to flourish more greatly in our country; they will be protected and know this; they scoff at us (I think of Manson) once they are arrested, if they aren't killed first.

Denial and doubt are useful tools for our enemies.
