Could you stop the bravado! I am a multi black belt holder in a few different arts that also lives in Texas and also carries a concealed weapon. The fact that I could or could not hit you with my fist is on almost mo meaning in this argument. Lets assume for the moment that I did hit you, ok? I'm having trouble trying to decide where your turn the other cheek methodology begins and ends. You say you would hit me back... what if I ducked and you hit an 'innocent' passerby? Would you stop immediatly since you don't wish harm to come to innocents? > As to fighting back, I would defend myself to the level needed to stop the > threat.

Do you feel there is still a threat in the middle east? I know I do! Perhaps later, we can sit and discuss why they needed to hit us, until then I believe we need to stop them from having the ability to do so. > > > But if you put me in a room, blind folded me, brought in 1000 > > > people of all > > > ages, races, cultures and sexes and had one (1) of them hit > me and then > > > unblindfolded me, I would NOT kick all of their asses.

We can come up with 'what ifs' till the cows come home. the reality is that there are quite a few people that KNOW who did the WTC planning, funding, etc... and they have decided NOT to say anything. What then?
