When you give a lesson in meanness to a critter
or a person, don't be surprised if they learn their lesson.

Never miss a good chance to shut up.

democrats weren't so evil when Will Rogers was around.   Except that they did believe that colored people should know their place and be considered not as good as whites.   Democrats fought to keep segregation and deny blacks HUMAN RIGHTS.   how short our memories are.

I think it was Will Rogers who said

I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.

I used that one once a number of years back with a guy in the Fighter Ace forums. He went ballistic. hehe.
