Your logic is non-sequitur to what I said, 1 don't compare the acts of fanatical individuals with that of terrorist groups, it sets up an illicit process in thinking. The results of that logic will become circular. 2 To say the comparison is out dated is like saying the KKK never did deal in terrorist tactics. ================ While the KKK has been de-fanged for the most part and I don't think it ever got as fanatical as the Islamic fanatics the comparison is the only one close enough to use to reasonably illustrate the "herd" mentality of such organizations that cloak themselves in religious righteousness. ================ To introduce McVeigh or the Unabomber into what I was relating to is like adding water to the pot by pissing in the soup. ================ Last your post is borderline to being adhominem, if you do want to deal that way or defend the KKK in some way be warned I'm well experienced in the art of flaming, and I'm not above it even though I do feel it is a waste of time. Jim PS please don't reply until you first have your brain examined by a proctoligist.
