[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 784220, member: 22662"] After reading that, More, I have never felt more patriotic in saying to that woman and those who believe such things, "I don't care." We aim to not fight evil with evil, wrong with wrong, or torture with torture. When we fail, it is to our credit when we hold ourselves accountable and to our shame when we turn our heads and excuse our actions. It is who we are and who we aim to become that defends our nation with honor. You may applaud this lady and you may agree with her, and it is and I would hope would always be your right to do so. But that your hatred and venom would have this nation throw off it's shackles of fairness and justice for the sake of retribution and revenge, to that I can only say, "I don't care." And I can only make that statement in the faith that past it's pimples and warts, short-comings and failings, gaffs and cataclysms, America, by standing by her values and principles (and not inspite of them), eventually gets it right.
