Jim-after all is said and done and dust has settled, I agree with you- Freedom of speech (NOT yelling FIRE in a crowded public venue when there are no flames evident being the exception here) is as important IMO as the Freedom of the People (US'ns) to own and bear arms freely) and some famous now dead Frog Statesman once said: "I may disagree with what you say, but I will defend to my death your right to say it"!! I think of HoJo as the "What, Me Worry" lop-eared kid on the cover of MAD Magazine- I'll bet you more folks read and post here due to several reasons: (One- Dave Weber- a firm believer in the Freedom of Speech issue- and (Two-everyone needs a good laugh to get through a world of Bernie Madoff, Chrysler closings and never ending Sturm und Drang in the troubled Mid-East, and HoJo provides that at times- his "personal" attacks on Market Hunter and Lowell Glenthorne are "over the top" IMO, and I agree with the poster who said something akin to "It's easy to insult someone you'll never meet from 1000 clicks away on the Al Gore-Network- sort of a Ted Kazinski long range approach- IMO"- thanks for your balanced outlook on this, very well said!!
