You seem to be conflating my insistence upon acting within recognized ethical principles with being so hopelessly naïve that I think all of us are. I am under no such illusions nor am I new to this game, sonny boy! :) I was followed and harassed by the F.B.I. numerously over the years and encountered who knows how many law enforcement agents trying to insinuate themselves into NAMBLA or my personal life. I will add, I was alone in spotting such agents when others did not. So, I will tell you not to condescend to me as if I haven't been around the block. Yes, I'm sure you're a hard-boiled tough guy but I am, too in my own, far-more civilized way. That's how I insist upon moving through the world, as if principles matter and have value during periods of great adversity. You would do well to learn that same lesson. |
