70k and perversion of our constitutional values is too high a price to pay for the lives of our soldiers, or our citizenry. The military exist solely to protect our freedom.

Here's the ad.

Is it even an apology?

Maybe not, but it's no better. Our elected officials have no place accepting or "rejecting" the viewpoints of private citizens. Hilliary's first comment should've been sufficient. The U.S. Government has nothing to do with the video, and that should include having no opinion on it whatsoever.

The GOOD news. 17 dead Pakistanis today in riots.

Overall, the Moslems are killing each other in droves. That's great news. In Libya, Palistan, Afghanistan, Egypt, Iraq and especially in Syria. The more the merrier. I couldn't care less about the human tragedy. BS.
They ALL hate us regardlesss of what Obama says. The more of them die the fewer to try and kill us.
Nice to know you couldn't care less about the human tragedy. When you finally shuffle off this mortal coil, I'll be sure not care less about you either.

I'm sure he's simply devastated that Internet Poster "JoeyStyles" will not lament his passing.

/endsarcasm

I like to think a few folks here are semi-decent e-friends. I don't expect any of them to lament my passing with more than a joke and a Warfist gif.

So lets not overstate our own importance here.

If you're gonna quote my name, at least spell it correctly. Not too much to ask.

I'm sure he could care less about what I think. I'm aware of that, but thanks for bringing it to my attention anyway. My point was his comment showed a callous disregard for the potential loss of life. A Muslim (not Moslem) life is no more or less precious than the life of a Christian, or a Mormom or a Wiccan. Same value. For him to say he could care less about the tragedy says a lot about him, none of it good. These are human lives we are talking about.

Maybe if you stopped playing internet bodyguard, he could respond himself.

You're welcome.

The idea that all human life is equally valuble is not a universally held opinion.

In fact, the very Muslims you defend here do not, in at the very least a VERY meaningful minority, do not hold that opinion.

Unlike our friend Palmetto, they actually act on that disagreement of ideas.

Lol, if either of us needed a bodyguard, I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's be me. Not former soldier and rich man P.D., but if he wants to chime in our you, he certainly can as well.

If you want to limit who can respond, I suggest taking your reply to P.M. Posting in public invites public comment.
