It is taking glee in the destruction of your ENEMIES. Yes, I don't see how it could be bad.

Here's a simple, effective tissue dispenser for all the snifflers, whiners and boo-hooers that need consoling.

A ridiculous comparison, and a complete distortion of my intended meaning. And you know it.

I would take GREAT personal joy and pride in ending the life of any terrorist scum that I could get my hands on. Because I know the kind of vile, disgusting, evil, twisted person that he is. I would be doing the world a huge favor, as the soldiers in the original story are doing.

Does that make me anti-social? Does that make those soldiers anti-social?

Hardly.

It makes them HEROES.

Mike

It would make me sad and I would weep and cry for the misunderstood Al Queda members that the brute, MikeMover would injudiciously terminate with extreme prejudice.

Good illustration that indoctrination enables us to rationalize anything: murder, genocide, bigger bombs, greater body counts. But then, God is on my side and as long as I have my flag decal, I'm always right. So don't mess with us Bin Laden (wherever you are) becuase my God is bigger than your God.

Nothing to do with god, yours, mine, his or whatever. We should kill the enemy before they kill us and they are trying to kill us. We play the game with the rules at hand not what we hope they will be.

Normally I would be offended but the source of the comment counts in this case.

Do I detect a little irritation ? ...or would you be ducking the issue ?

After all....these statistics are from your very own intelligence.....no ?
