You know, I expected some idiot to say "are you calling them NAZIS?"

I didn't think the abstraction would go over your head, though. Mary Anne tried to make all symbolic actions equivalent--just a way to connect to "something larger than yourself."

I responded that it makes a big difference what's being symbolized, and what the thing is that is "larger than yourself." I used an obvious example off the top of my head. I could have used Jonestown, the Klan, or many other examples. I didn't think anyone would take the metaphor literally, for God's sake.

I'm glad you're having fun with this. I'm glad you live a very low profile, and don't have anything that these idiots are likely to target as a waste of our precious resources, an act of pollution, or an offense against nature.

These nutcases have succeeded in making combustion itself a crime, and people like you just yawn. I'm honestly curious as to what point they will have to get to before you realize that there's no limit to what they want to do.
