Gee, what was that comment about justification and denial? Does that have
something to do with not paying attention to the thread of the issue, for
instance, or denying it? For instance in the case of "I can't think of a
single case which justifies grabbing someone by the collar...etc." and Mr.
Jorgensen comes up with:

Do you deny that this is blatantly denying the thread? Do you deny that you
are justifying? How about do you deny that denial and justification in
themselves are abusive? I would say they are much more abusive than violence
in this case because you are denying the relationships that lead to violence.
Broad brush charges are quite due those who support this abusive society,
especially since it has been so long guilty of opression with its broad brushed
bigotries. Ever hear the phrase "The only good indian is a dead indian." or
"They are a conquered people, and that's what you have to expect as a
conquered people." Personally I would feel much better if all the Europeans
of my society, from pole to pole, were sterilized at birth, for I can think
of no other policy that will give my planet a good solid chance to ever
be healthy again. As for glee, I'll feel gleeful when all the cars are
buried and all of us who are not commuting by bicycle live within walking
distance of work and I will feel more and more gleeful the fewer schmucks
there are who don't think about these things first with their brain and
conscience instead of their pocketbook and pecker before feeling so bold as
to repeat the same old justification and denial of ogres like Columbus. And
yes, I intend to rattle your cage and feel it's appropriate.
Sincerely from a genuine sterilized white guy,
Xeno Whitenack.
