Before being hounded away by other Americans if memory serves me right?
Nothing against them, just that it makes the criticism of the Bini look
tame...

You are correct....This group is VERY anti-American. Obviously the UK
only believes in free speech, as long as you don't disagree with their
narrow minded views.

We have some resident Trolls who are faking user IDs and posting abusive
comments. Check that the headers are all correct before responding.
Don't respond to cross postings as they are intended to cause angst.

It's a bit rough in here at the moment but anyone with a keen interest
in the original Mini should stick it out as I assume the aim of the
Troll is to have the users all abandon the group.

Usenet's real primary purpose is entertainment of those with a clue, by
those without.

"Consider that language a moment. 'Purposefully and materially
supported hostilities against the United States' is in the eye of the
beholder, and this administration has proven itself to be astonishingly
impatient with criticism of any kind. The broad powers given to Bush by
this legislation allow him to capture, indefinitely detain, and refuse a
hearing to any American citizen who speaks out against Iraq or any other
part of the so-called 'War on Terror.'

"If you write a letter to the editor attacking Bush, you could be
deemed as purposefully and materially supporting hostilities against the
United States. If you organize or join a public demonstration against
Iraq, or against the administration, the same designation could befall
you. One dark-comedy aspect of the legislation is that senators or House
members who publicly disagree with Bush, criticize him, or organize
investigations into his dealings could be placed under the same
designation. In effect, Congress just gave Bush the power to lock them
up." -- William Rivers Pitt

The Victorians thought viewing the patients in Lunatic Asylums was good
entertainment. A trip to Bethlehem, or ‘Bedlam’ as it became known for
short, was one of the great treats of a Londoner’s leisure time, like a
trip to the theatre.
