About Me
- Name: Infidel753
- Location: Portland, Oregon, United States
Individualist, pro-technology, pro-democracy, anti-religion. I speak only for myself and not for any ideology, movement, or party. It has been my great good fortune to live my whole life free of "spirituality" of any kind. I believe that evidence and reason are the keys to understanding reality; that technology rather than ideology or politics has been the great liberator of humanity; and that in the long run, human intelligence is the most powerful force in the universe.

Enjoyed the clip indeed ... I have heard of the story/ film, but never seen it.
The people who don't believe in trials for terrorists need to see this.
Unfortunately, they wouldn't understand a word of it.
RC: I've seen the whole film, and it's quite impressive.
SK: They might perhaps grasp it in terms of the increasingly invasive and outrageous (and obviously useless) TSA "security theater" at our airports, which is finally provoking some real outrage.
As convenient as it is may seem to do wrong in the pursuit of what we consider a just end, the end result is almost always always that the people who take that route, becone just like those they sought to overcome.
