Subject: RE: BS: Marine Message from the Front Lines
In a general response I would say that "you" represents the supposed "peace" folks who antagonize others, start fights and then say they were not wanting that, stray from topic to keep the fight going, are assholes and not truly looking for anything but a confrontation, infer that which is not stated or implied to return to jingoistic taunting behavior, and have a rabid need to "win" with the last word at all costs. "You" also are the folks that destroy proerty in the name of civil disobedience, physically attack those who countermarch, physically assault men and women in uniform as a "statement" of peace, make anonymous threats over the phone to people who have children fighting in Iraq, are bigots, racist, gay bashing, despising of anything that does not exactly meet your standard of what should be.

The problem being that your standard does not hold a steady line. Kind of like trying to direct the wind with your hand. "You" are about confrontation and imbecilic attitude simply for the sake of the argument and confrontation. Over here refers to Mudcat in a tiny way and the peace movement in splinter sectors. "You" are the ones who give the rest a bad name - just my opinion -

That's a few -
