Oh Thor, there you go overreacting again.

Your supposed to stick a thumb in his eye and demand info on his accomplices before you kill him.

Yeah, a little "intel" wouldn't have hurt. ;)

I think a lot of the DUmmies are concerned about the treatment of this terrorist because they think he may be the Nigerian prince they sent their money to, and he's on his way to the U.S. to split his $25 million with them.

I remember, back at CU, I wrote a scenario for a moot court.

It involved a hijacking. The passengers were herded into the back of the plane and conspired to retake the plane by force. Alas, in their midst was a passenger that did not want to resist and he said he was willing to betray the other passengers in order to foil their plot. In the effort to suppress this quisling he was killed when his neck snapped.

The trial was set about the man that killed the quisling. As the quisling was not a direct physical threat the law--as written--did not exempt his killing.

I was excoriated for even fabricating such a scenario. No one wanted to play along becuase it was simply too absurd. Not even close to realistic. Utter nonsense.

And yet, here we are today looking at a group of human flotsam that not only would have served as prosecutor for my fictitious defendant but probably would have served as the quisling.

Y'all owe me an apology.

Umm OK Snugs I'll give it my bestest shot.

I'm sorry the the DUmmies have lived up to being the DUchebags you envisioned in your scenario. No one thought anyone could be that damn stupid and evil but we were all wrong and you were right. The DUmbshits are as every bit evil, stupid and sheer blind to reality as you thought.

Pretty much.

I learned long ago that you CANNOT overestimate the insanity of the left. I would write plenty of absurdist satire only to have it vindicated weeks later. It was part of my inspiration for the moot court (that and strict legalism).

These people would immediately arrest the hero and charge him with crimes while discussing the rights of the terrorists.

There are Navy SEALS in prison for being mean to terrorists for crying out loud.
