If more Germans had stood up against Nazi hate speech in the 1920s and '30s, a lot of lives - including American lives - might have been spared in WWII. Instead, they "lightened up" and let Germany descend into the Holocaust.
Well Jack, I only did as you suggested and stood up against your attempt to "stifle" Jim's tag line. If only it had spared us more of your tortured rhetoric . . . but as long as we keep it light on both sides, I'd say no harm, no foul. And we're now up to 10 pages, with views on either side of the issue. I don't think our democracy is in any sort of peril . . . nor even the democracy of this website.
