<<So, enjoy every day to the max! >>

Yes, I do and if we all solved our differences as I do on the golf course playing match play $5 Nassaus the world would be a safer palace (no misspelling) for all.

I propose a humongous explosion of the MJ(marijuana) bomb in the atmosphere to mellow out the worlds inhabitants.

<< Despite all the patriotic hysteria going on, they have won unfortunately. >>

What have they won, in your eyes? In "most" American's eyes they have won nothing. They have committed mass murder of innocents. Is that winning to you?

<< We are all scared whether we like to admit it or not. >>

So were all the military soldiers who landing in Normandy in 1944 to fight the Nazis. What do you do when you are scared?

<< We'll never again look up to see an airplane again and not think "will it come at me?". >>

Forget my last question, you have already said what you will be doing as a scared American.

<< Until they are curtailed ... we are kidding ourselves that we will leave in a peaceful world. >>

Do you feel that America, and the world that America protects, will be safer if America is disarmed? Apparently you have learned nothing from this terrorist attack against America, and the continuous terrorist bombings around the world. What would you fight these terrorists with, more meaningless and unsupported slogans?

<< I think there has been an intense debate in Washington D.C. between the hawks and the few ones who said "hmm, maybe we should change the way we conduct policy around the world". >>

Yes, there are a few who would give into terrorism. Why don't you write notes to these congressmen saying that America and the world will be a lot safer if America could not defend itself or the world with military forces.

If someone broke into your home and attacked YOUR family, would you be so eager to be defenseless? Or, is it just the rest of America that you want to be defenseless?

Bullshit. They were successful in killing a lot of innocent people, that's all I will say. They didn't "win".

WE are not ALL scared.
I am not scared.
MOST of us are not scared.
We're NOT going to look up at airplanes and say "Does it have my name on it"?

You might say these things, and you might want other people to think this, for whatever hidden reason you may have, but you don't speak for the rest of the country.
