<<today showed that all U.S. citizens should be armed and should have guns with them wherever they go.>>

Dealer: Unfortunately, I can't agree with you...IMHO, the country might be MORE DANGEROUS and MORE UNSTABLE if everyone was armed all the time. Arming citizens WOULD NOT prevent the types of terrorist activities that we witnessed earlier today. Smarter, more comprehensive, and more proactive U.S. Intelligence activities might have helped stop the hijackings and the destruction. I also feel that more emphasis on actively mediating Arab-Israeli peace talks would have possibly helped us avoid the violent attacks.

Just my views.

Best Regards,

Scott

While I'm shocked and saddened by these events, I hope it does not become another excuse to further limit our personal freedoms.

Hi, Freeus, my good friend and porcher buddy. Just thought I'd check in here and let the thread know, and you in particular, I'm a <open quote> "jingoistic, bloodthirsty, war-mongering religious zealot"<close quote> at least according to this qcoman with whom you recently corresponded herein publically on Tom's porch. Opps, didn't mean to spill your coffee...fresh outta napkins, how about a couple "coffee filters" to help clean up the spill<g>?.

When we're through with this state of war we are now in, and the president has uttered these very solemn words, and it will be a protracted one with some losses as well as ultimate victory, you will have MORE of your precious freedom than you now are currently enjoying. Just wanted you to know, Freeus, that there is hope, and hang in there, girl!

PS...did you go ahead and retire, or are you back in the school marm chair?
