This seems to reinforce the propositions ...Alonzo-<br /><br />This seems to reinforce the propositions of Rachel Maddow you address in your earlier post. Her program was advocating the use law enforcement to investigate people like Randall Terry, and his group, Operation Rescue, because she is suspicious of his real motives. She based much of her suspicions from the suggestive language of Randall Terry's speeches. Operation Rescue's hiring of a convicted felon with a history of supporting private violence is another, albeit stronger, piece of evidence, to justify an investigation and routine surveillance of his group so see if they are actively promoting private violence to achieve their political ends.Mikenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16594468.post-81017953448070599182009-06-09T14:19:24.354-06:002009-06-09T14:19:24.354-06:00Anonymous-
Contrary to your opening statement, yo...Anonymous-<br /><br />Contrary to your opening statement, you do, <i>as a rule</i>, agree with with violence, the rule being when politicians and business men don't follow your spoken will. I take it to mean that you condone the use of unofficial violence to get your way in a democratic society when the democratic process does not result in a fulfillment of your desires. That is generally what we call, "terrorism."<br /><br />Now that is <i>a very unethical way of persuasion.</i> Here's to Timothy McVeigh.Mikenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16594468.post-53354349448691804542009-06-09T03:07:28.724-06:002009-06-09T03:07:28.724-06:00You know, there's a time for everything. i don...You know, there's a time for everything. i don't as a general rule agree with violence, but people hide great atrocities behind walls, and i think you're naive to believe that dialogue always helps with those in power. some of us just DO know better (although - politicians / businessmen generally do, but the money speaks LOUDER). using sex offenders in the church as an analogy to convince people to conform to your opinion on ANOTHER topic is a very unethical way of persuasion. here's to Parouzia. *clink* (look that up dear)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
