Terrorist weapons kill completely innocent people, because they're meant to; they don't work otherwise.

Russ
Don't be absurd. All weapons kill completely innocent people.

Mike Scott Rohan
Not at all. The weapons of law enforcement may sometimes kill the innocent, but that is not their deliberate purpose -- unlike those of terrorists.

Oi...where were you a week ago when I was fighting the terrorphiles single handed...?

well...with a bit of 'help' from Ojevind...

On other and -- with apologies to old friends -- more worthwhile groups. It was only the Wagner cross-posting to classical music groups that drew me back, and I don't know how long I'll stay. It's sad to see the same old slime surfacing again here, on what grounds I can't imagine; it stands for everything Tolkien hated, and how anyone who claims even the slightest appreciation of his books could spout it is inconceivable. All credit to you and Oje for standing up to it; I've no doubt there are plenty of others who just don't care to get involved, and perhaps they're right. To seriously support terrorism demands a mental kink impervious to anything so rational as argument or compassion.
