  • Interesting.
  • He seems to be casting that "terrorism" net a little wide, if you ask me. Yes, violent acts are reprehensible, but there are a few points in the essay where I get the feeling he wouldn't be entirely displeased if Homeland Security just rounded up the whole of PETA and sent them to Guantanamo.
  • "I would like to present a few well reasoned objections against your emotional responses to my work. Because that always works."
