Now if you're one of those that believe they just 'goofed up' when law stated clearly what they can and can't do, then imagine the nation in post-habeas corpus. Heading towards a stalinist government? He couldn't be more correct and he used Waco, TX to illustrate that. |

If you think I'm one of the Republican apologists, you are more mixed up here than you normally appear to be. And there is nothing "Stalinist" about the US Government. If there was, they'd just shoot you to make you shut up. |

Coming from someone whose general tone of discourse is hysterical shrieking, being told I don't "express opinions" strongly enough is like being told by a puritan that I am not discrete enough with my sexuality. I suppose I'll have to live with the rebuke while considering the source.

Re: Was Waco a warning of what Stalinism will be like?

Maybe if I'm in a good mood I'll blurt out opinions on drug use and sex crimes to show that I have opinions that are unique and different from people of the fringe as I stay in line with 'mainstream' thought. If someone really tries to anchor me into giving an opinion on a controversial subject that may go against the grain with my fellow posters I'll just declare ignorance to play it safe. But in the end, I'm just here to play referee with folks that have opinions and heckle people I consider weirdos. Hey, all's fair in politics, aye? |

It's the first post I've seen by you that didn't conjure up a mental image of someone wide-eyed and shrieking.
