No, that's the one thing you are not.

You don't come here to discuss, you come here to pronounce. You begin with the assumption that your experience is superior to everyone else's, that your knowledge is deeper and more profound. If you ever displayed one iota of genuine curiosity about your fellow community members, it would be a delight.

Now, in your own clever way, tell me how that's not true, how you, and R. L. know so much without learning.

You know nothing of me, of my experiences. All you do is make assumptions...assumptions explicitly designed to allow you to pat yourself on the back. Sad to watch, really. I can't help but wonder if you are unable to cope with disagreement away from the 'Zone as well.

The difference between reading about 30,000 innocent people being killed, and meeting with the family of one innocent person killed by yer own side?

How on earth can you claim to know who I've met, and who I haven't? What I've lived through, and what I haven't? You've become a parody of yourself, Bowser.
