CMON MR CUOMO

Thank you, I wasn't sure you understood that guns didn't exist 2,600 years age. Apparently you didn't, but nice try.

Delusions of some sort of grandeur, much???

Glitterbag is being nasty again. She also seemed to miss (or forget) the classical education people her age should have received.

Virgil's Aenid started "Arma virumque cano... " "I sing of arms and the man". This was over 2000 years ago and part of a passage I had drilled into me and still remember.

Oralloy said "arms"... And arms existed (and were considered important) thousands of years before guns were invented..

This reminds me of an old Wizard of Id cartoon, where a member of the Royal Court approaches the King and advices him that "the peasants are demanding the right to bear arms" to which the king replies "So, rip off their sleeves"

There are several members here who remember the Wizard of Id, I'm not sure Max will know because I doubt he has a sense of humour. However, I've mentioned before that I attended Catholic Schools and this was before Vatican II. I don't expect everyone to remember things like this, but before Vatican II, the Mass was still celebrated in Latin, we studied Latin. We didn't converse in Latin at lunch time, but that's neither here nor there. When you go to an all-girls high school, you cook up all sorts of uses for foreign languages and other things to amuse yourselves and stymie the nuns. We actually had classes in the Convent before the New High School was built...We were not allowed in the cloistered areas, but sometime a few girls would get far enough in to attempt to grease the nuns toilets. (Note: The Convent was located right next to the school and connected by a tunnel).

But I'm sure my education barely stands up compared to the multi-talented Max who must have Liberal Arts, Fine Arts, Science and Engineering degrees up the wazoo. I guess my parents didn't love me as much as Max's parents loved him. Alas

I'm thinking maybe inbred, swamp person, duelling banjos type?

I don't know how educated he is, but maybe, maybe, maybe ... grade 6.

Because if he were educated at all, or had an inquiring mind, he'd know there are other ways to argue than simply and repeatedly call all his opponents Stalinists and Progressives. That gets old the third time you see that.

And when you see it 300 times, you know the guy has no reasoning or deductive powers.

So... he's the twit.

You rely on childish name-calling because you lack the ability to make intelligent arguments.
