The simple fact that more people are arrested after they commit a crime than before they have committed a crime is proof, and why crimes of passion are so difficult to prevent.
Laugh.# Yeah, you really got me there.# You ever see that movie "Minority Report" with Tom Cruise?# Check it out.# I know it'd be right up your alley because the last time I recommended it to a 70-year-old fighter pilot/Secret Service Agent/FAA Chief confidant from Florida, he really liked it.

Actually that movie terrified me, because it reminded me of how we have attempted to mold hate crime legislation. It’s pretty scary to think that a misdemeanor crime could be escalated to a serious felony on the grounds that someone claims to know exactly what the criminal’s motivation and thinking before the crime was.

Really now, should a man of your age and position be broadcasting political opinion, movie reviews and sensitive presidential security protocols to a bunch of Canadian hockey fans at 3am on a Monday morning? I think not.
The freedom of the western world is at hand here, Bill, so you should tread lightly. I've no idea which website our mutual friend "sjwalter" recruited you from to no doubt "kick our liberal asses" but I'm sure the locals there would counsel you to keep your national secrets quite secret.

I’ve had a great time here and I do hope to come back and see if you take your hockey as serious as your politics. I have much more up my sleeve than what we’ve discussed here, but it falls far short of what I wish Tom Clancy might offer us. Actually right now I’m thinking more about how tired I’ll be when I sneak off in the morning to ride up to Daytona and check out the hot young ladies at Biketoberfest in Daytona and hope I don’t get rained on along the way. :P
The only butts I care to kick are those that use force and violence to enforce totalitarian regimes on the people of the world. No person on this planet in any country can consider themselves truly free until all of the people on earth enjoy individual freedom and liberty. Equality of opportunity is much more important to the people of the world than equality of results – once people are truly free they can make their own results.
