<<<< Lots of folks vote that way>>>>

Hmm? As I said, likely the most important thing we vote on - dwarfing all others that immediately come to mind - is the health of the environment - Global Warming. Doesn't seem to get many votes for those who run on this issue. Short term gain vrs what is good in the long term?

And okay, you are correct that the use of guns would not be "civil" - but that misses my point. Many many people on the far right believe in their heart of hearts that running up the deficit the way we are, requires civil - or even more dramatic efforts - disobedience's - to correct. Don't they have every right that Dr Martin Luther King had - or the civil disobedience's that koan thinks of? My point John is your meaningful issues are important to you and the meaningful issues of the right are every bit as meaningful to them. You think they are wrong - they think you are wrong. And so here we sit..........
