There was an anti-war rally at my school a few weeks ago. Although the crowd was indeed moslty anti-war, there were a few pro-war people there. Here’s some quotes from the article from our school paper. I’m not just pulling out the bad quotes, I was there. This is about it.
“‘What do Afghanistan and Iraq have in common?’ one anti-war student asked a pro-Bush student. ‘They’re both Muslim and they’re both terrorists.’”
I’m sure the fact that they are Muslim has a lot of importance.
“‘I’ve always felt the United States can do anything we want,’ he said, adding that his mission is to ‘disarm the liberals from the world.’”
No comment.
“[Senator] Chaundhary was told to ‘Go home commie.’”
“[A student] said, ‘They [the anti-war side] are just a bunch of retards because they need to reasearch it, because they have nothing else.’”
Yeah, factual arguments are pretty pointless.
Sometimes the stupidity of the human race astounds me.
