I don't mind a stimulating discussion or debate; in fact I often enjoy them. But, it gets old when the other side just keeps repeating the same old mantra over and over and over. An original thought once in a while is refreshing and food for thought. Harry has lumped all who don't see things his way as being "stupid" or worse. That's not an intellectual discussion. |

I suppose if I lived in Estrogen, Florida, I'd keep busy cleaning the pool and rebuilding the pool bar, eh? I find building things to be very rewarding and the environmental scientists I work with when I am volunteering at DEP are every bit as stimulating as the political hacks and union thugs you work for. I am not riding on a bus, walking in rain snow and slush all winter to do it either. |

Even a state four year college back then was cheap enough so that a student could pay his or her way with part time and summer job. Yeah, **** your country, duck the draft and get a jingle writing job. Helping your country prop up a series of brutal dictatorships, including one that resulted in Thích Qu?ng ??c, a Buddhist monk, setting himself on fire to protest Christian brutality, is not an example of appropriate patriotism. Oh, and your terminology is deficient, too. Continuing one's education is not "ducking" the draft so long as one is registered. It's too bad you didn't avail yourself of a formal higher education...you might have learned some critical thinking skills. In at least a half dozen posts you've told us how we should have gotten into at least a community college to escape the draft. What do *you* call that? To me, it's kinda chicken **** draft dodging. -- Well, you certainly didn't need college to evolve into chicken ****, did you? I won't pat myself on the back. Nice try though. -- Ban Krausescheiße-spouting narcissists...not guns! |

The reality is that the self-immolation by that monk helped bring down a brutal government, albeit it was replaced by one that equaled it in corruption. The monk's act and the spreading of the photos of it around the world changed history. .... IE "look at me. I'm going to kill myself for a cause" whatever. Same goes for hunger strikes.
