[TruthTalk] SPer Tactics

[Dave Hansen]

DAVEH:  Could that be because of your relatively large stature, Kevin?  Perhaps you seem more menacing to your opponents than do smaller SPers whom you have implied were attacked by at least one Mormon, though you suggested more than one in your use of plural form of Mormon Thugs........ ++++++++++ Only Mormon Thugs & Anarchists attack us. Nice company you keep. And let me remind you Mormons always attack from the REAR and seem to have some strange homing device that alllows them to pick out those really SMALL SP's that must be the most vitriolic ones. ++++++++++ ..........Was that smaller SP who was attacked one of your group?  Do you resent that another SPer was attacked, and you were not? Does that mean I do/do not/can/can not have my own personal martyr complex as you put it?     Not at all, Kevin.  I wouldn't think of denying your right to have any head problems.  I'm just wondering what you think when you do confront your opponents on the street.  Do you intentionally try to push them to the edge....IOW, it is a part of your preaching strategy to bring the water to a boil?  And, have you ever been attacked by anybody to whom you were preaching?
