Wrong. Even children learn, long before they would be considered mature,
that actions have consequences.

Jim has not gotten that yet. When he does, he will be considered nmore mature
than he is now.

The difference between immaturity and
maturity is that the mature person will go forward and carry out required
actions, even knowing that these actions may carry some undesirable
consequences.


Huh?

Your pov seems to suggest we ought not attack those who attack us, lest we
aggravate them further. Frozen into inaction by fear, eh?


Not at all. Go stand in the corner, Dunce.


Do you reckon my original post in this thread is the cause of the
name-calling? If this thread had been about the best tuna salad recipe for
a long day of fishing, would there still be the name-calling?

I don't think there can be any doubt, John.


I'm glad the point got across.

What a major hit!!!

OT or not, this is terrific news for everyone, boaters included. ;-)


Every time we wave the "Mission Accomplished" banner we find out that we
shouldn't be yelling "YAHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!" quite so loudly.

Remind me again where I said or referenced anything about "mission
accomplished"?

Can you not enjoy the moment Jim and keep the politics out of this?

There was no reference to politics.

No, I cannot "enjoy the moment", what is there to enjoy?

An evil man was killed, along with many thousands of innocent people.
Tomorrow will be a violent one. Many will die violent deaths, both the
guilty and the innocent.

I find it all hard to "enjoy."

Let's see...this death was on the news at least by 6 o'clock AM yesterday,
and was repeated at least every ten minutes throughout the day. Sometime
yesterday evening, Mys terry quotes JimH's post which had just been made.
The post was OT, about an inflammatory subject, and self-guaranteed to
quickly become a political flamefest, which it did.

Now you are being castigated for not keeping 'politics' out of a
politically oriented post. Surely the post was meant to be much more than
informative, unless the OP thought every one had been in a cocoon all day.

No matter how you want to spin it my post was not politically motivated and
had nothing to do with politics.

However, you and others choice to make it so.

Do you have anything to offer here besides netcopping, negative posts and
recipe postings John?

......apparently, he survived the
blast, and was semi-conscious when the authorities arrived. Pretty
amazing when considering the rubble.

And considering the size and impact of the blasts. The military video
showing on the web is impressive but not very clear. I fisrt thought that
the safe house was surrounded by numerous other houses or buildings, many of
which appeared to be severely impacted by the blast. But that is not at all
the case. The safe house is (was) remote, out along a road in an area that
appears to be orchard or managed forest of some sort. You can see it on
Google Earth at N33 48 03 E44 30 48. The military video is a view looking
southward.

well, not really remote, but isolated
