Re: Anyone who uses "alas"...I gotta wonder about.

Thanks. Now I get you. Your post speaks for itself. Perhaps when it's your turn to get waterboarded you will remember your words. I'm not laughing anymore because you are frightening and tragic. You are frightening and tragic because I know people with your very narrow thought patterns exist, you are not the only one, and I find it hard to comprehend. Were you alone in your thinking it would be laughable. It is beyond my comprehension that you could have such evil thoughts.

Insults are the childish reaction of those who have no valid arguments. Sling mud. Look up "alas" in your dictionary. What does the use of that word tell you about me? You know nothing about me.

You stick to the basics? These to me are code words in this instance for "I will not allow myself to think outside my little tiny box. The patriotism fever has taken hold of me and I like my mob mentality." Life is very rarely black and white; there are many shades of gray.

National defense, yeah, baby. Let's kill the %¤#&!§-s! That's what matters most. Kill, torture, maim if you dare to not let us do what we want.

It takes wisdom and maturity not to torture and kill and cause wars -- wisdom, maturity and goodness.

The only thing I can possibly think of is that you are probably between the ages of 17 and 30 and haven't had time to be knocked around by life a bit. If you are not, that is even worse.

And I will not waste my time even responding to you anymore. You are a closed mind. So have at it, insult away. You have every right to do so. I wish you luck.
