Frederic Conrad, I realize that many things that are discussed on these forums, would be much more difficult to express in a face-to-face situation. And I really don't know what MNI's motives are.

But I can tell you "You are Dead-Wrong" in your assumption about truedog. I don't know where you're from. But I don't think any American citizen would see him as anything but an honest man and loyal citizen of his country. And insulting him the way you did was completely uncalled for. Hence, the matter of respect.

As for verbalizing sentiments, I would say that truedog shoots from the hip, and has no trouble at all expressing his thoughts on whatever subject is being discussed.

I realize that you are a young man, and you are very passionate about your opinions and beliefs. And it would be to your benefit to listen to people who have been around a little longer than you have. If you listen to your elders with an open-mind, you can gain much wisdom, and save yourself a lot of grief in this life.

Please don't take offense. I'm not telling you anything that I wouldn't tell my 27 year old son.

I really think you should apologize to truedog,(His Native American Name). He is an honorable man and does not deserve to be disrespected.

Sincerely, C Kahn

Freddie, I know you will not respond and that suits me just fine. You are a bit too abrasive from the get go for my taste. I do get abrasive myself but, it is always in retaliation. I just want you and anyone else around, that I began debating political, personal, and moral issues to peoples faces in the late '50s from the podium,in coffee shops, beer halls,banquet rooms,mens toilets,conventions etc,etc,etc,. Think again before you call me coward...TD

Frederic,

THANK YOU SO MUCH.... Re: ...however, I have serious reservations about the same being true with truedog or MNI. They strike me as pathetic weaklings who cower behind a computer monitor.

I'm sure you hit the nail on the head about these two 'weaklings' but don't expect them to shoot the breeze with you --they're interested in ME, not you! Ahaha! I suspect their agenda is, somehow, to psych me out.... Why? Anyway, I take it good-humouredly --as a little game.

You and Charles Hennessey are the only two sane, truly and genuinely open-to-discussion guys on this thread, but don't be naive about Ms Colleen: I suspect she's hooked up to the aforementioned finaglers. Just look at the way she's lamenting about 'personal attacks' --but who started them in the first place?? She allegedly launched this thread dedicated to JFK Jr, Is this an assassination?, right?? Now, browse through all her past messages on this thread: can you pick me one where she's addressing the subject? Don't even sweat it.... Actually, MNI, truedog, and more recently Ms C Kahn are more interested in messing with me than in anything else, according to some specific division of labor though: truedog's job is to sordidly trash me as a despicable Nazi-Hitlerian-anti-Semite jerk! And, believe me, he'll stick at it whatever obverse I may pledge. C Kahn has a more subtle assignment: although she introduced herself as a harmless, all-American housewife, she shoddily shifted the rap away from JFK Jr to that cursed ringer-skunk-at-the-garden-party, aka Gustave Jaeger. Hence, instead of addressing my so-called 'wild theories' about the Kennedys' Catholic mischance, John John's possible presidential candidacy, etc. she'd rather gang up to crowd me out....

Yet, the top of the bill really is crafty MNI! He's truly at the top of the con-chain: always picking on me, niggling on everything I might have to write, and always failing to argue my points --fairly and squarely. I too find such a fallaciousness pathetic.

Nevertheless, all that infowar skullduggery will not prevent me from getting along: the bottomline is still to share information and on-topic opinions with each other, isn't it? Freedom of speech is OUR name of the cybergame, while 'p o w e r l e s s n e s s' is theirs! (Remember the paradigm shift from one-to-many media toward many-to-many webcasting) So, those sweet-talkers can stake us out 24/7, dynamite gen's only a click away!
