Those who wish to make a case against the US government or America in general, can do so without attempting to excuse this sad sack's actions or to elevate him to the level of selfless patriot and left-dressed saint. Funny stuff. coffee

From what tailpipe did you crawl out? ROTFMOL
For someone who so ardently defends individual rights, it seems you have joined the ranks of the flag wavers.
Disappointing, Iss coffee
You have previously demonstrated to my satisfaction that you have little understanding of individual rights, and you now confirm it, Ezekiel. That is okay. I was not disappointed. ;-)
Yours,
