Hi chainik: msloft made a "stupid remark?" Perhaps. But if so, he's got company: me. I thought it was a quite brilliant remark: I only wish I came up with it first.
Your remark was 100% correct. Don't apologize just because some unpatriotic people do not believe in freedom of speech or the U.S. constitution. They may want to turn this country into their own exclusive back yard, but we, the true patriots as T. Roosevelt said, the people that still believe in freedom, will never let them.
