Your loss. There was also Tuborg and cheese danish that I picked up at the 7-11 on P Street. Afterwards I had a burrito at Burrito Bros., which is a nice post-Danish beer snack, albeit not quite Danish itself, although the Mexican press has seen fit to stand up to the extremist Islam thugs and publish the cartoons, which is a refreshing nod to free speech and a robust press in comparison with feckless cowards in the American media. As of today add the
alternative weekly New York Press as another "newspaper" too chicken-shit to publish these newsworthy cartoons that Danes are now dying for.
Thomas Sowell may be presciently correct in a piece at
Townhall when he notes that we may be at a point of no return.
Looking back at the history of tragic times often reveals that many -- or most -- of the people of those times were often preoccupied with things that look trivial, or even pathetic, in view of the catastrophe looming over them. Will later generations looking back at our times see a similar blindness, and even frivolousness, in the face of mortal dangers?
That is the point of no return -- and we are drifting towards it, chattering away about legalisms and politics.
