Lesson In Tolerance
The 8 Rules Of Etiquette on
How To Deal With "Peace" Activists
With the advent of the World Trade Center disaster and the ensuing military
actions against terrorism, many of us will encounter "Peace" activists who
will try and convince us that we must refrain from retaliating against the
ones who terrorized us all on September 11, 2001.

These activists may be alone or in gatherings...most of us don't know how to
react to them.

When you come upon one of these people, or one of their rallies, here are
the proper rules of etiquette:

1. Listen politely while this person explains their views. Strike up a
conversation if necessary and look very interested in their ideas. They will
tell you how revenge is immoral, and that by attacking the people who did
this to us, we will only bring on more violence. They will probably use many
arguments,ranging from political, to religious, to humanitarian.

2. In the middle of their remarks, without any warning, punch them in the
nose.

3. When the person gets up off of the ground, they will be very angry and
they may try to hit you, so be careful.

4. Very quickly and calmly remind the person that violence only brings about
more violence and remind them of their stand on this matter. Tell them if
they are really committed to a nonviolent approach to
undeserved attacks, they will turn the other cheek and negotiate a solution.
Tell them they must lead by example if they really believe what they are
saying.

5. Most of them will think for a moment and then agree that you are correct.

6. As soon as they do that, hit them again. Only this time hit them much
harder. Square in the nose.

7. Repeat steps 2-5 until the desired results are obtained and the idiot
realizes how stupid of an argument he/she is making.

8. There is no difference in an individual attacking an unsuspecting victim
or a group of terrorists attacking a nation of people. It is totally
unacceptable and must be dealt with. Perhaps at a high cost.

We owe our military a huge debt for what they are doing for us and our
children. We must support them and our leaders at times like these.

As a Nation, we have no choice. We either strike back, VERY HARD, or we will
keep getting hit in the nose.
