Re: OT: Friday Humor...Maybe More Cool than Funny

Tim,

I take that to mean that we should be aware of what political family's
patriarch was a particpant in the coup that Butler exposed, per the
wikipedia article.
Everyone else, if you don't know who that person was then you only
get one guess as to what his last name was. Wealthy Pro-Nazis during that 
time continued their activities during and after congresional 
investigation, which should give everyone all the hint they would need.

To me, the graphic is particularly offensive as it replaces the Statue of
Liberty's torch (a symbol of enlightenment) with a blazing machine gun 
(pretty much the opposite of enlightenment). How anyone in this day and 
age could fail to see the irony of a gun-totin' tablet-of-justice 
carryin' Statue of Liberty and  how that image plays to the view of 
America held by today's world boggles my mind.

Norm, I'm 100% for a strong military, and I respect you as a person and 
as someone who knows pretty much everything there is to know about 
Remedy. But off-topic or not, that graphic should not have been posted to 
this forum.

Guess wether it's cool or not depends on your politics ...

For sure, that's the way 90% of the world views the US right now, for
better or worse.

Forgive me…this isn’t exactly funny, but I think it’s cool, and I
know there are a lot of ex-military types on the list who might
appreciate it:
