Something that I notice.

This pattern seems to happen over and over.  When the rhetoric here gets a bit hot, people leave.

Well, my answer to that is, if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.  A little fur must fly from time to time.

In the old days, say the eighteenth and nineteenth century, when dudes got crosswise with each other, they could have a duel.  The question of honor was being questioned, so the only answer may have been on the field of honor.  This is how Alexander Hamilton met his fate at the hands of Aaron Burr.

Aaron Burr may have been seen as the bad guy, the Hamilton said some stuff that he should not have said.  He went too far.

The kind of things happening today would cause duels in those times.  The point?  Where is the indignation on the so-called conservative side?  Why do they sit there and let themselves be slandered and libeled without any consequence for the perpetrators?

Are we really civilized to allow this kind of thing?  Or is there another explanation?  Not advocating that we bring back duels, but this kind of thing must not be allowed to go unanswered.

Law suits?  Well, I don't know.  Those really don't address it well enough.
