Brian, I disagree about our military being useless. Yes, the military was unable to do anything about the 4 planes that we know about, but it DID protect the President and we DID stabilize the situation within hours. And we don't yet know the whole story...I would bet that there were other attacks that were, perhaps, thwarted. For this country it's a terrible wound that will leave scars for generations to come. But it's not fatal by any means BECAUSE of our strength.

>Men who wish to commit violent acts will not have their hearts changed by the barrel of a gun, nor a missle; these may in fact have the opposite effect. How many times must we go down this road?
I look forward to the day when I am no longer a minority in believing this.<

And so your "enlightened" solution to end mass murders such as this, is?

Regards,
