What if I forgot to tie my shoe before I left for work? Sheesh.

No reason to get all pissy. Did you read what Zamler wrote? There is enough hyperbole in that post to make even me blush and I use hyperbole like nobody's business. I certainly wasn't trying to start a debate about the million different scenarios where it could be safer to stop. It isn't a black and white issue.

I'm wrong quite frequently. I just don't like dealing in absolutes.

I may be a dink but it always amazes me how angry people get when others don't share their opinion, including myself.
