Richard Wiig Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 (edited) I didn't escape it anymore than you did. I wasn't even there. One thing the disaster has done is sharpen my animosity towards Environmentalists and statists. Is a desire for freedom in your veins, or what, or are you more concerned as to whether or not people have what you consider to be an acceptable reaction?

One thing the disaster has done is sharpen my animosity towards Environmentalists and statists. Is a desire for freedom in your veins, or what, or are you more concerned as to whether or not people have what you consider to be an acceptable reaction?I asked you a question and you have answered it. Your reaction to this natural shock was to sharpen your hatred towards things you already hated.I will answer what you asked me in return. (1) yes(2) no.
