I did very clearly. Hawks said "it takes a strong person to kill someone" in reference to this psychopath. You tried to ascribe rationality to him as if he was just a freedom fighter for his own ideals - equating him to a soldier; false equality.

I stand by what I said - I do not propose to ban anyone's expression no matter how crude (what Beck does most days is reckless and Palins targets were unacceptable). HOWEVER, what Clinton once said after Oklahoma City was that words and rhetoric do fall on both the rational and unhinged. And those in power or prominence have a personal responsibility to understand this fact when they speak. (and P.S. to your false equality argument, I am equally appalled by any Iraqi child or civilian caught in crossfire. The soldier is not the psychopath, but the those that orchestrated that action are the evil (Cheney, Bush, Rumsfield). That is a moral equivalency.

Then here comes Buddie calling us weak drama queens. Pathetic that I ever befriended that person. Complete cold, detached disregard for human events and void of all empathy. These are some of the lacking qualities in society that bring us this crap.
