It Does Get Weird At Times
Somewhere, sometime along the thread it all kinds of bleeds out, then the bouquets or the bombs come out. Folks get either kissy-face, or they start ripping into each other. And then, gawd help us, it just gets plain silly -- you look up at the blue header (at least it's blue from where I sit): "Israel imposes a 10-year ban on American critic of Israeli policies", and you wonder why folks are on about kumquats or whatever.
Sheesh, I would have thought this thread might come a little closer to home -- you know, how many people have been refused entry into THE HOMELAND and for what silly reasons, and why there are literally hundreds of thousands of people on the no-fly-lists -- "Sorry Mr. Blase, but you aren't flying today. No, we can't tell you why, that's a security secret. Who do you talk to? Sorry sir, we can't tell you that. Don't get upset sir, or we'll have to call security to restrain you. Sir, lower your voice. Don't resist sir, or we'll have to taser you . . . "
