Oh, I get it. You're one of the "real, true patriots, too." I should have known.

Gosh, thanks for taking time from your busy schedule of having the weight of the world on your shoulders -- you know, the weight you have to carry because the rest of us are so dumb and don't care what happens to this country -- to drop by FR.

nor can you tell anything about me by my posts. This is fact.

Unless you're a well accomplished liar, I'm sure I can -- along with a lot of other people -- pretty well figure out exactly where you're coming from.

If business (retail, etc.) in Virginia and Maryland is being affected as significantly as I have heard . . .

I heard somewhere the other day that restaurant business in Montgomery County was down 50%. If one has ever seen all the restaurants in Bethesda they would know the effect this is having. Your point is well taken.

So I gather. It does occur to me that we need a forum for the permanently disgruntled. LOL!.

I think I will go make a cup of coffee and start reading.

It is time to put aside childish things such as basing your worldview on fictional westerns and characters in movies.

They don't really like facts very much, Texasforever.

Tracing, or contacting ?

If there were a campaign underway to ban boxed vans because of the misuse of a few, I probably would object to be questioned about it.

Do you hold onto ragged undies as long as you've beaten this dead horse of old westerns and B-movies?

You have offered nothing but the "John Wayne/Matt Dillon" argument to make your case and when that case failed under its own weight you have been left with nothing but vacuous opinions, still based on your complete ignorance of the nation's history and constitution, stated as fact.

Make it a pay per post forum. FR would be rich!

I never said that you were "dumb". That is something only you can ascribe to.

Your condescension has been duly noted.

You would prefer "a" solution to the current sniper/shooter issue confronting the DC metro area?

Gees, you guys are up late tonight.

Just heard on WTOP again, 100 yards behind restaurant. Gees, thats a football field. My opinion. Shooter wasn't very brave, just wanted to pick off someone.

PING for the disenfranchised.

Try PETA. They care about Apes.

And that was a joke. And I am old and you are probably young.

We are going to be going through national trauma at intermittent intervals, because this is a war. And part of war is not knowing when you are attacked if it is an enemy or a deranged member of your own community.

Humor is helpful and civility is also helpful in such times. Most of us at FreeRepublic have such large egos or deeply held principles that civility often is a unknown skill, and I am definitely not talented in that area.

But, in war, maybe we should all start to learn new skills.

But isn't it great to live in a country were you can like someone and still disagree with them?

Glad to hear there's justice somewhere.

Unfortunately being a brick in the Blue Wall has its perks around here.

We disagree, and while I don't "hate" them.....I can't vouch for the reverse.

:-)

Ah, well....life goes onwards.

Cheers!
