I will defend rights no matter what, they are the only thing that separates us from a banana republic.

I understand your desire to do that and for the most part I would also. But it's possible to be fanatic about anything. There are those who defend their 'right' to blow up the innocent. Their rights must be trampled upon, IMHO.

BTW, was I the only one having problems. Uh oh.

I'm not a fanatic, and there is nothing fanatical about defending the only thing that stands between them and us.

There are those who defend their 'right' to blow up the innocent.

No such right exists, hence the difference.

BTW, was I the only one having problems. Uh oh.

It seems there was a temporary problem. It seems to have passed.

I must go now. regards
