Patriots. I understand him perfectly.

Skimric is no Bubba and he's no wild-eyed nutbag shooter. He's just a big, bellicose (in the best sense) patriot (in the noble sense) and he wants to keep his birthright.

Aye.

Imric's Tips for Living

Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.

Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.

Yeah, yeah. All noble sentiments...

...and, for all you know, I might actually *agree* with them.

Too bad, though, that while you are thus obviously agreeing with me that the emotional component of the discussion here is on *Imric's* side, you don't come out and explicitly say so.

Why is that -- pure oversight, or are *you* now building strawmen (or helping Skip shore up his)?

If it was just an oversight, then you can easily rectify that by replying to this post that yes, it was actually *Imric* who was being illogical in claiming that the prefectly logical solution to the problem of gun killings of removing the guns, was somehow "illogical".

Your lies are of Microsoftian Scale and boring to boot. Your 'depression' may be the closest you ever come to recognizing truth: you have no 'inferiority complex', you are inferior - and something inside you recognizes this. - [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=71575|Ashton Brown]
