Pretty sobering recollections. Never heard of drop guns before.

Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    wow....

    It's sad that young men all over the country are living silently about their experience in Iraq.

    The "Banality of Evil" lives to see yet another generation...

    You're right, we should be hearing about this in the news; not just the moving train. I guess the "Liberal" media will start reporting on it when it becomes profitable. Imagine how different the world would be if truth > $$$.

    You litter MT with all this biased crap all day. Right now you are responsible for three threads on the first page of this forum and by your standards that is relatively light.

    I have not seen you post one positive U.S. thread here yet. You just dig through and find all negatives. But for every article you post or link, there are hundreds of others for the other side.

    It may be negative, but it's still happens.

    seems the more information on any subject is better than none. That should be the idea-get as much infomation about a subject as you can- and make up your own mind.

    So why don't you start those threads? It's not his obligation to be politically neutral.

    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    Don't hold your breath.

    I discuss the issues with information and links instead of copping out and succumbing to meaningless ad hominem...

    give it a try...
