the "bad kids?" guess what- it's not their fault and Gattigap as a member of society should try to correct the shortcomings he perceives in their behavior. society is "taking" anything from him- it is just asking that he gives his fair share.

I for one think it's telling that Hank eschewed the easy swing offered with the Judaism/Christianity pitch, and waited for the high, hard, inside challenge of liberalism on which to base his response.
It's time we took note from Hank's example, that the path to becoming
Most Helpful Lawtalkers Poster 2006 requires us to stretch ourselves and write about what's unfamiliar and challenging. We have Hank to thank for this little reminder. Doubly so after I tell the Urchins that with this little Greyhound ticket, they can go visit Uncle Hank in Detroit, who has in his basement loads of toys and that big cache of assault weapons they've been asking about.
