This seems to imply that the meaning of words don't change over time
and across societies. They do. Thus, using a word in the 1800s might
be fine, but using the same word in the 21st century could easily be
wrong and hurtful. Equating the use of the word waiter to the N word
isn't really a valid comparison. If anyone thinks it is, then they're
being disingenious to make a point or they're just plain dumb.

Is "Jew" one of those hurtful words since the infiltration of the US
Government? *Why does that always result in an attack, no matter how you
say it?

I think you're a loon. No one that I recall ever said that "jew" was a
hurtful word.

You believe that conspiracies are everywhere, apparently.

I'm just wondering what the hell happened to you for you to be so hateful
toward an entire race.

John, perhaps you should read what Larry wrote.

If you had your shipmates killed in a questionable way you too might
hold a grudge until justice is served.

I havent researched what happened to larrys shipmates enough to know
the truth, but there is alot of questionable evidence and accounts of
what happened.

Larry seems pretty smart when it comes to electronics, everyone seeks
him out here for that talent, that talent was in high demand on the
type of ship his shipmates were killed on.

Larry needs to find a better way, place to channel his fustration.

The Captain words were
"It appears to me that it was not a pure case of mistaken
identity."
-- Captain William L. McGonagle,

I tend to accept the word of the man in charge, not being there.

Perhaps he should seek out his shipmates and find a better way to sort
out the facts.
He should reign in his anger, it's only hurting him and his efforts to
find the facts...IMO
