WTF? (Part 3)

From the response by Mr. Herman to Val's polite broadside:

At least Castro is only killing innocents in his own country. Bush is killing innocents here and abroad.

How, precisely, does one respond to this type of commentary?

I personally think that it might be time for Val to have another round-up of thoughts about Cuba. I know that I would be happy to take part again, and I also know that there are a lot of people here in the States who need a much more realistic look at our neighbor.

Read Val's response to the response.

So she openly admits that Castro is killing his own people. . .

And we should send him money because . . .

Interesting that her defense includes the "quick! look over there" shot so as to not have to defend her own position.

The person making the weird comments is actually a guy--but I noticed that little bit of misdirection, too. Typical response, though, isn't it?

So if I kill Herman it's less of a crime if I do it here in the US than if I killed him overseas?

Precisely.

He's a teacher? Horrifying.
