ThreeBeers [/ QUOTE ] When they fundamentally disagree with your ability to be treated equally... yes. Remember, this guy called the Civil Rights movement the "Civil Wrongs" movement. Classy. I went to a party full of Bosnians when Milosevic died and I felt pretty good about it.

Anyone that believes that Farwell was a good man is an idiot. That simple. I hope it hurt Jerry. He was just another Carney selling cotton Candy on the midway to the hayseeds.

Re: the most famous 2+2 poster has died
Interesting. I would think you could simply beat that person in the marketplace of ideas rather than celebrating his death. But perhaps not. I have never understood why "civility" has been taken out of civil discourse. Even if you don't think that person was civil, why would you ever want to lower yourself? We are often taught in many of today's poker books to treat others with respect (even the obnoxious players) if for no other reason than not to tap on this tank (to borrow a pharse). This allows you to beat that player on the felt. This bit of sage advise could extend to people you disagree with regarding more serious issues. Simply treat them with respect so you can beat them in the marketplace of ideas. Lastly, I hope you are not drawing a moral equivilance between Falwell and Slobo?But then again . . .I would not want to tap on your tank.

Great advice for poker where all you're trying to do is win some money. Poor advice for real life when someone with an agenda tries to stop you from living the life you want because he claims that his religion tells him that you are a sinner and going to hell. If he had his way there'd be no difference between the US and Iran except that we'd have the Christian police instead of the Islamic police. As far as I'm concerned he can burn in hell.
