"What possible difference does it make..."

If Neocon posted that his son was blown up by Al-Quaida terrorists while attending a college class (knock on wood), I would cry very real tears. I am sad right now at the mere thought of Neocon experiencing such a tragic loss.

I don't intend to explain that to you or convince you of anything. You either get it or you...

Well, thanks at least for confirming my point. You do not treat people with respect out of fear of material harm, you do so because they deserve it, as people. Remember the Categorical Imperative: never treat another rational being merely as a means, but as an end also. Or, to put it bluntly, have a little class, why don't you?
