God, why won't these Democrats get tough on terrorists and just nuke somebody. All the softies do is talk, talk, talk. (Oh, yeh, and occassionally win bronze stars).

Actually, it's not at all about points, 3G. It's about fear. I see normally intelligent, rational people talking about killing a massive number of people different from them and justifying it on the basis of the actions of a dedicated minority of that group and it frightens me.
Edited to remove some shit that I posted before realizing that 3G is simply either (i) provoking debate or (ii) just stirring up the shit. Either way, my initial response was wrong.
