"Lobby Dosser" wrote in message news:4l87h.4486$ZN1.4269@trndny03... The Hawker Hunter is a lovely aircraft, is it not? That one won't be replaced any time soon, certainly. Yep. And your Very First Thought was for the aircraft. What's more important to the average American? The Declaration of Independence or the guard standing near it protecting it with his life? I'd be willing to bet that the guard's Job Description does NOT include protecting it with his life. What's more important, the document or the principles? The crash of a rare or unique plane diminishes aviation's physical history. So What! If the Spirit of St. Louis fell off its cables and crushed a tourist standing under it, America would not remember the name of the tourist, but they would remember that the Spirit of St. Louis had fallen from the ceiling. I don't saying so slights the value of the victims lives at all. There's nothing the pilot could have done to save himself but not fly that day. Then, of course, it set a couple homes on fire. **** the plane! |

The document -- no question about it. |

You are one sick mother****er! Hardly. We have, as a nation, glorified those who Died For The Flag. The flag is even Less important than is the document setting forth the principles the nation was founded on. Were you this way Before you engaged in indiscriminate shooting? I have Never engaged in indiscriminate shooting, save with the twin M-60's on the helicopter. Otherwise, I picked my targets quite carefully. |
