A Canadian who doesn't watch hockey?!?!? Call the homeland security group! Must be an outsider!
Only thing worse is starting a thread about something you think is funny, and having a bunch of people wreck it by turning it serious [img]tongue.gif[/img] Not that something like THAT ever happens around here...
For the record, I support little guys defending themselves, and advocate for alternatives to violence. I'm reminded of a bit from Road House, with Patrick Swayze:
"I want you to be nice. Someone causes problems, you walk him to the door. You be nice. He won't go, someone else will help you. You both be nice. I want you to be nice... until it's time NOT to be nice."
"How will we know when it's time?"
"I will tell you when it's time."
