Jasmine, we have every right to satirise the lifestyles and beliefs lived by anyone. Satirising soft targets such as irrational and incompetent political figures/muppets probably wouldn't offend you in the slightest. We, just like yourself, have as much right to launch a satirical H-Bomb/smart missile into people such as John Howard, and George Winston Bush if we feel like doing so. God knows, those two go to bed (separate ones just like Burt & Ernie! There! stick that satire in yer peace pipe n' schmoke it ;]) each night thinking that their contribution to the world IS making a difference. Your grandiose (mis)judgements, (quote, unquote)

>Get over your predjudices and embrace the earth... before >people like yourselfs destroy it for everyone.

upon us at this point are highly defensive, unneccisary, hypersensitive, and furthering on with the irrelevance of:

>I think that your "Hippie
>Fighters" section has gone a little to far. At least
>these people are able to detach themselves from a self
>destructive society and create a lifestyle that is
>enjoyable and beneficial to the world.

Suppose we are trying to do this also, in a different way. We cannot keep everyone (anyone?) happy, just like yourselves but remember as a strong idealist that just because your, views/lifestyle choices may be of leftist/socialist/humanitarian persuasion, that NO cows are sacred!

Oh, BTW if you accuse me of being a right-wing fascist/empty Dorito's packet ignoramus, at this point: GO DIRECTLY TO JAIL, IF YOU PASS "GO" DO NOT COLLECT $200.
