Subj : Rush to Judgement? To : Joseph Voigt From : Curtis Johnson Date : Tue Nov 07 2000 08:30 pm RZ> That's like saying the cop was the "real" bad guy because he RZ> happened to catch the robber in the act. JV> He's the COP here? :) See my message to him. What an inept analogy. It's notable that he's not the only one on that side sharing such a glaring and identical blind spot, which together with the timing does make me wonder about questions of identity as well. RZ> To blame me for having a naturally negative reaction to someone's bad RZ> behavior is pure bunk. JV> In other words, hypocrisy is okay with him. Per his argument, bad JV> behavior is okay to fight bad behavior with, rape is okay to fight a JV> rapist with, murder is okay to fight a murderer with, and on and on. JV> :) One always wonders how far a person of this mindset would go. Nietzsche's dictum about fighting monsters applies--even if the monsters are imaginary. >> RZ> You need to look up the word "hypocrite". >> Ahem. JV> He missed it. The interesting question is just whether he is even aware of a discrepancy between his words and--his words. --- Blue Wave/DOS v2.30 [NR] * Origin: America's favorite whine - it's your fault!
