rendered stupid? I believe Dunedan made a very effective argument that caused the thought processes in alot of peoples brain come to a stuttering halt and go backwards for a bit.
Also, HAD a bunch of us gotten together and decided to fire back over "Warrantless wiretapping, extraordinary rendition, waterboarding, no-fly lists, unwarranted search and seizures if you're within 2 hours of a border, and "free speech zones", where would you have been? my guess is that you woudn't have been grabbing gun and ammo to join us, particularly since you think it's stupid to attempt to become a 'branch davidian'.
