We must be careful in desiring balance that we don't throw weight the other way. It is perfectly natural and normal to express support voiced as disdain for the enemy.

We have had servicemen on the board. Our friends Hellfire and Turbovee. Let's give them our unequivocal support as friends first and foremost.

Absolutely a great way of reminding us that it IS personal - not even requiring '6 degrees of separation' to be personally involved - we all have frinds and family who are in uniform. To not be vociferous in my support of them, and in condemnation of our common enemy seems a betrayal on a personal level, as well as national.
Thanx, oh Bard of the Board
