   Subject: proper rules of etiquette when encountering a peace activist

   With the war raging, many of us will encounter "Peace Activists" who
   will try and convince us that we must stop from retaliating against
   the ones who terrorized us all on September 11, 2001, and those who
   support terror.  These activists may be alone or in a gathering most
   of us don't know how to react to them.  When you come upon one of
   these people, or one of their rallies, here are the proper rules of
   etiquette:

    

    

   1. Listen politely while this person explains their views.  Strike up
   a conversation if necessary and look very interested in their ideas.
   They will tell you how revenge is immoral, and that by attacking the
   people who did this to us, we will only bring on more violence.  They
   will probably use many arguments, ranging from political to religious
   to

   humanitarian.

    

   2. In the middle of their remarks, without any warning, punch them in
   the nose.

    

   3. When the person gets up off of the ground, they will be very angry
   and they may try to hit you, so be careful.

    

   4. Very quickly and calmly remind the person that violence only brings
   about more violence and remind them of their stand on this matter.
   Tell them if they are really committed to a nonviolent approach to
   undeserved attacks, they will turn the other cheek and negotiate a
   solution.  Tell them they must lead by example if they really believe
   what

   they are saying.

    

   5. Most of them will think for a moment and then agree that you are
   correct.

    

   6. As soon as they do that, hit them again.  Only this time hit them
   much harder.  Square in the nose.

    

   7. Repeat steps 2-5 until the desired results are obtained and the
   idiot realizes how stupid of an argument he/she is making.

    

   8. There is no difference in an individual attacking an unsuspecting
   victim or a group of terrorists attacking a nation of people.  It is
   unacceptable and must be dealt with.

   Perhaps at a high cost.

    

   We owe our military a huge debt for what they are about to do for us
   and our children

   We must support them and our leaders at times like these  We have no
   choice.  We either strike back, VERY HARD, or we will keep getting hit
   in the nose.

    

   Lesson over, class dismissed
