Man spits on cop, gets life in jail

"I believe that she was joking to make something close to the same point that you're making. I think that you may need some sarcasm lessons."

Actually, if I am correct in my understanding, she was trying for irony; The fact I would criticize someone for mistreating a woman when I am equally abuse, if verbally rather than physically. Irony is not the same as sarcasm Kelly, regardless of similarities. I simply chose to use her remarks to illustrate my point better and give them some value rather than treat them as the childish remarks they were concieved to be.

As for you Burbank, I only have one last parting sentiment on a distantly related topic: The Rand corporation does statistical analysis of trends in America, amongst other things, and is always looking for cyclical patterns which may have future implications. They discovered new frontiers of industry in America seem to be pioneered every forty to fifty years, with a ten to fifteen year incubation period where they are first explored prior to exploitation. Interesting, though only conjecture. If the same is true for political trends, we may be developing into a Police State within the next few decades, I feel certainly within a century. I personally believe a form of Facism will be eclipsing our liberal democratic tendancies, as little as I like it. With headlines arising regarding the revisiting of the Constitution, and our new unilateral Pre-Emptive strike policy, it may arrive even sooner.

If we ever needed a Gaius Caesar, it was now.
