Subject: RE: BS: Fly safe with the air marshalls
You know, I don't come here often, but it seems to me that this WYSIWYG person is a real patronizing, know-it-all sort of jerk.

Thanks, ~S~, but I'd rather not leave it all to the "experts". They are more often the problem than the cure. Personal slurs like "Monday morning quarterbacking" (AKA "sniping") merely requires a modem and an internet connection faster than the brain of the user" are completely unwarranted here. We are all expressing something we are all perfectly entitled to: our opinions.

In a democracy (something you apparently feel pretty threatened by), there are other measures we use to assess the ethics of a situation like this, and none of them requires a PhD, a divinity degree, or work experience in the police, military, or other security forces.

Your snottiness is pretty unpleasant, but I'm guessing you behave this way because you don't even recognize how snotty and condescending you are towards those who disagree with you. Mature people can handle disagreement and tolerate different opinions being voiced, without turning it personal.
