Then back up your assertion by citing all of that anti-saddam property destruction.

Too bad you miss the whole point of what I'm saying. Looking at a tally of who did what doesn't affect the point of what I am saying. This is not a game with score...the least bad stuff wins...

Jimbo - If you replace the word most with the word some in your statement I think a lot of people who think you're just trying to categorize all the protestors as bad people and don't really know what you're talking about might actually agree with you.

Done! 😀

So you can then surmise that there is a higher correlation of assholes that destroy property in the anti-war protester crowd. That would be an accurate statement.

Ignoring the obvious also seems to be a trait of the anti-war/pro-saddam crowd.

Ignorantly labeling Anti War Protestors as Pro Hussien seems to be the trait of those who can't comprehend the rights of others to disagree with our government. In addition, though there is truth in the statement that there is a higher concentration of assholes who destroy property in the Anit War Crowd, that doesn't mean that it's not a small percentage of them. To suggest otherwise is just a simple minded attempt to demonize those whom you disgree with over this issue.

Your ignorance is showing. Pray tell what "crowd" do I belong to?

Considering that you make your politics quite obvious to anybody that reads your political posts, there is not much mystery about your politics.

It would show ignorance to pretend otherwise.

Ohhh..of course! So, what crowd am I a member of? Please tell me so I can go get my member card and make sure my dues are paid up...

well then..they just commited suicide for their cause basically

I'm sure just about every anti-war protester you talk to will not condone this act or the people resonsible. You'd have to have a very narrow view of humanity to believe that all (or even most) anti-war protesters would consider this reasonable behaviour.

If, on the other hand you merely don't like anti-war protesters and want to find an arguement to slander them all with - as a few of you no doubt do - then I can see why you'd take the "protesters are evil" stance. Its a means to an end.

You are showing your ignorance anyways.

When I start seeing widespread protests that demand that Saddam disarm as a means to avoid war, I will believe your argument.
Until then, you just sound as well informed as Sheryl Crow.

I also not that you practice the same tactic that you accuse others of while demeaning them.
I guess that just either makes you stupid or are you just a hypocrite?

Well then Sheryl Crow is more informed than you are. And I am demeaning you for saying that you are irgnorant by callijng all Anti War Protestors "Pro Hussien"? Since when did telling the truth become demeaning?

In the immortal words of Russ: "You just get dumber and dumber"
Do you think you are more informed than I am regarding this subject? Do you even know what my stance is regarding Disarming Hussien? The only thing you know is that I think you labeling Anti War Protestors as Pro Hussien is one of the most ignorant statements regarding this issue I have seen. Unfortunately you aren't the only buffoon here that's done that.

BTW, I know Russ and you are no Russ!
 
I am a robot - programmed by the anti-war crowd and set to perpetuate acts random criminal acts. Along with all of my cloned brethren I will steadfastly refuse to embrace free thought and shall carry out my tasks without forethought. For I am an autom-antiwar-aton. We are all the same.
