Pierce - How exactly is my logic flawed? Especially since it is a question posed to a previous poster?

@Pierce.... Not to burst your bubble, but there were actually some violent blacks during the Civil Rights Movement era. As well as others who thought groups such as SNCC needed to embrace direct action in the form of violent instead of passive resistance. But yeah you're right the violence of a few does not necessarily reflect the attitudes of the non-violent majority and their legitimate concerns.

Classic, because you are looking at it much too narrowly.

I call Bullshit - I never posted MY position - I posted a definition to counter hers from the DOD (not mine) and then posed a question to her. Where did I ever state my logic?

This is just a question? Doesn't imply your position at all? Are you serious?

Read the posts in this thread Classic and try to absorb what they are saying...think about them. Nobody is giving terrorism a pass, but they are doing a good job of trying to figure out why it it.

Yes, essentially, but we dont have to.

ETA: It actually does all boil down to narrowness of view anyway, doesnt it?

I was speaking to Pierce in my post, can't edit to clarify now because the time limit has passed.

Thats all well and good banter, but tell me exactly what my position is then. It shouldn't be too hard for you since I apparently said what it is and its so "narrow." Or just go back in this thread and copy it from there - that'll work too.

Which one? Where? You apparently have a preconceived notion of my opinion and then call it narrow. Wanna try again.
Just go ahead and tell me what my opinion is. Please.

Jinx did that already. There was definitely a view point (with 'tude even) suggested in the response she quoted. Its not a big deal Classic, and Pierce already did a really good job of explaining himself.
