Subject: they can see who they are..kill them
Written By: saver on 06/30/04 at 1:42 am
From my understanding people are walking the streets of Iraq with grenade launching guns.
I think if anyone here was seen walking with such an item, they are dealt with appropriately.
Maybe that would be a good start with the new Iraq government-implement a new way of life!!!
It's a start to something called 'civility'. :-\\

This reminds me of my father's theory of handling things over there.
He said that when these morons do kill an innocent person (Like all the darned beheadings lately :P)..he said that at least part of them are gonna be out in the open, leaping up and down in celebration..so, if we put a sniper on every corner, and start shooting the idiots jumping around, then voila! And if any inoocents are juimping up and down, well, they'll figure out soon enough NOT to celebrate that kind of thing! ;D
(Now...I'm not sure how much I agree with it, but it certainly seems like a decent way to get rid of a good majority of the "bad guys"!)

There are certainly more subtle means. We could send them to Al -whatever that prison is called and turn the interogators loose. We could send them to Guantanamo, where who knows what they would face. We might also try to REASON with them and actually show them that democracy could work. This constant recourse to the gun troubles me deeply.
