Gosh - thanks, Henny. Can I really have my own opinions? Mighty generous of you.

I don't know quite who you think you're fooling here - your posts are positively dripping with contempt, and yet you whine and cry about how nasty other people are with their posts. Give is a rest. If you can't post your opinions in a civil way, without slyly denigrating the people you're posting to, I suggest you go back to soliciting clients in emergency rooms, or whatever it is you do when you're not here.

It's just not possible for you to debate, is it? And if my posts "drip with contempt" it's because I can't believe people are so ignorant as to their rights, and then launch ad hominem attacks (your post is a perfect example of the ad hominem attack, by the way) against those who point out that their interpretation of the law does not pass Constitutional muster.

Far from whining and crying about nastiness, I merely point out the fact that a post contains an ad hominem attack. I'm sure that you and others who resort to such tactics wish I wouldn't point them out, but alas, I feel I must.

The ad hominem attacks don't bother me; I rather expect them when I post things that tend to uphold our civil liberties.

So if you want to continue posting such attacks, it's really A-OK with me. Is name-calling really more fun and rewarding than debate?

I'd have to agree. I've been uncharacteristically patient here considering how high your horse is.
