I, for instance, have an entire life separate of this echo. I have many things
that I can stay busy doing. With the attack dog gone for however long he
decides, I am able to forget this silly place.

That won't happen.

Well, there's that thing about tolerance and diversity they keep going on
about. Although, I haven't witnessed either WRT Christianity.

There's that tolerance and diversity thing again. Only for thee and not for me
and all that.

Bingo.

They are just "defending" themselves.

 TR> Yet, you scream for a president's or a secretary of defense's head if a
U.S.

civilians.

Another bingo.

You have him nailed.

Their mere existence is enough for the Sauers of the world to cheer their
death.

That would require consistency from Sauer and his ilk.

Well, you know how dangerous I am.

Uh oh, you read their play book.

And you see how well those changes were received.

That's his normal level.

Heh heh heh... and they usually kick him to the curb.

Nor the knowledge.
