Let's see, just on the basis of this exerpt, we see a man fighting against the fight against Islamofascism.

He'd've gotten along real fine with Oswald Mosely.

lol. I love it. Urbane, you are a tonic, you really are.

Do you not also see a government and police force which disallows public protest? Not to mention how ludicrous to spend £110,000 trying to stop a one man protest.

It is of course very sad, but too, I have no sympathy for the man either.

Interesting that what struck you first was his anti-war sentiment, and not the infringement of basic rights of expression.

As you know, I am so very, unbelievably, utterly, so fucking tired of the ones so myopic as to oppose the demolition of the undemocratic paradigm of sociopolitical order.

In shorter words, of the dummies who think killing fascists is a bad thing.

As opposed to the dummies who think that we should voluntarily dismantle our democratic freedoms rather than give houseroom to this man's anti-war philosphy?

Threatening your President is not wise since everything changed. You have time to edit.

Griff, I can't imagine where you got that: personally, I'm threatening the Democratic Party. George Bush's actions all show, and from day one, that he thinks killing fascists is quite a good thing. I heartily agree.

The Libertarian-activist habit of speaking of all the non-Libertarians (big L, I suppose) as "fascists" in the manner that astronomers and astrophysicists speak of all elements other than hydrogen and helium as the "metals" -- well, this seems to me only about that precise. As a libertarian, I doubt if I shall ever indulge in it.

DanaC, and somehow we should oppose only some dummies and not all dummies?? Avoid conning yourself with false dichotomies -- you certainly could not lead me thus astray.

For some reason I have an image of you wearing biblical robes somewhere in a desert.

[Holding hands over vessel of water] Hey, watch this! First I make the water part in two halves, then I change the left half into cabernet and the right into chardonnay!

"Vote for me and I won't touch you down there".
Was going to be mine.

So, Bruce, tell me: do I indulge in such remarks wrt you?
