Thats funny

- If something is morally right or wrong for one person, it is also right or wrong for ten people, or a million. Which millions are you talking about? And are there other millions that it goes the other way for? How about forcing children to make a pledge that asserts the existence of God (and it's pretty clear that Rama is not included in the definition of that particular God)?

- There is a hell of a difference between inquisitions and gulags, and automobile traffic laws. I hope I do have to remind you that we are talking about (according to you) "leftist's" secret desires of their hearts. If I don't have to remind you, then I have to point out how full of crap you are. Americans do not go much for gulags (although Phil may, soon). And no American since McCarthy has called for an inquisition.

        No American since Roosevelt has imprisoned an entire class of people, either. So let's not be smug about gulags. (n/t) - Tom Brosz - 9/22/2004 7:19:15 PM
