The guest of 04 Sep 04 - 10:49 AM (I can see why anyone with such views would want to preserve his/her anonymity) said, among much other rubbish, that this isn't the way to fight. Maybe after reading Lepus Rex's post, that guest could say what would be the correct way for the more fanatical elements of a brutalised population to respond, after seeing some 45,000 of their children slaughtered.

Desperate people do desperate things, far beyond the comprehension of those of us who are not desperate. It's wrong, but it happens. In fact it's predictable. And it won't ever be stopped by main force.

Big Tim, what were you doing for those first two days, that prevented you from posting at Mudcat? You could have taken the heat out of the spat you stirred up, simply by re-reading your first post and then apologising.
