Re: Logically flawed
Yeah, likewise. If we all jumped into an online debate about pacifism, gun-control, anarchists, and the like -- it probably wouldn't accomplish much. I can actually sympathize with the underlying idea that increased liberty in many cases can make us stronger, and I know many people who wondered aloud "what if some of the passengers had firearms?", so although I disagree with it's relevance, it's not an insane impulse. I was just assuming that the logic issues I perceived in the essay were a result of hastily and not completely thought-out rhetoric; much like the time RMS asked you to yank his essay while he re-worked it. Just talking about it is good :-)
