"<BR/><BR/>You mock what you don't understand. It's okay, we all do it sometimes. You're right that it won't have the effect you describe, but that's not the point. The point is to try and inculcate a sense of humanity among those who come into visual contact. You can't argue that it won't have that effect, just like no one can argue that it will. We just have our gut instincts.<BR/><BR/>More bullets will only make things worse, but that's rather obvious. You're obviously not serious about wishing for peace in the region, but that's okay too.Jody McAllisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15059566547243005660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1614702577266360928.post-25270085712561705132007-03-20T23:45:00.000+02:002007-03-20T23:45:00.000+02:00"Lighten up"?Tell that to the families of suicide ..."Lighten up"?<BR/><BR/>Tell that to the families of suicide bomber victims.<BR/><BR/>Speak those words over the corpses left in the wake of racial genocide.<BR/><BR/>Use that trite comment to comfort those who lost loved ones on 9/11.<BR/><BR/>I'm sure that Poland abounded with a "sense of humor" just before the tanks rolled in.<BR/><BR/>It is pure hypocrisy to join hands and smile with those who want you dead.<BR/><BR/>Keep laughing, bagel boy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1614702577266360928.post-39200269374900100062007-03-19T19:52:00.000+02:002007-03-19T19:52:00.000+02:00awww, lighten up Druid dude.
