Are you being supportive or sarcastic, Mr Walsham?
tac
TAC, the message is supportive of our soldiers…but not supportive of the war mongering snakes that put them in harm’s way. It covered a march by ex-veterans that are against the war. It reveals a lot of things that the snakes would rather not have people hear. ie: the truth. I would not call the video sarcastic by any means. But it does lend itself to attack by close minded right wing fanatics.

And left wing fanatics have their mind open?
Man, the 60s are over! Socialism didn’t work, Dude!
Even China has gone capitalist…“Run a model train for Mao” is their new slogan.

Hey Marvin,
Quite an interesting video.
How about a deep breath and counting to ten??
Not sure how CNN got brought into this. The video was done by BBC.

Perhaps you should actually watch the video. You would then discover the source was the BBC.
The British Broadcasting Corporation.
Or: as some would call the BBC, the Bolshevik Broadcasting Conspiracy.

Tony, Actually one could tell that from the URL, just as long as one is able to read an URL. But as the saying goes some have problems with email, some have problems with links, some have problems with their computers, some have problems with pictures etc. etc. Sheesh, no wonder the world is in the shape it’s in … a vale of problems! There must be some easier way. 
Like this: Beginners invariably have a bit of a problem getting up the slopes - BTW these are not handicapped skiers - just as they are apprehensive getting down the hills. Sooooo since they’re in Grade 4, 5 or 6 I use a method that sinks in. To go up the hill one uses the herringbone stride, but that’s a “dumb” word for the kids. So I call it the “Duck Walk”, same stride, different word! And to make them remember what to do they get to quack all the way up the hill. Whole group all in a line. 
Downhill it’s the pigeon-toed position in order to get a proper “snowplow”. Whatever it takes! Sure they protest occasionally"I can’t do that!" My reply: “Have you tried it yet?” Too bad it doesn’t work as well with old coots!

There were similar “disillusioned” Vets after the Vietnam War that protested that war. And Yes, I knew it was the BBC. Warren is the one brought up “Pravda” and the uses of snakes…CNN was a natural response in relation to the “snakes” comment.

HJ, I never ever get to 10…three is the count for a weapon’s trigger squeeze to lauch lead projectiles. A very controlled but sometimes rapid count. Deep breaths cause poor groupings. Never a miss…never a prisoner taken.

And let me imagine this image…you are the head quacker! Is this where you get the deep breaths and counting to ten?..Something “Deep Breath”…“count to ten”…“quack”…and then start the cycle over again.

Marvin,
Good luck with your imagination! You know the instructor usually doesn’t lead the parade, stands off to the side and makes sure that all the ducks are in a row, eh!
“Deep breath, count to ten” is an old relaxation routine, works very well! I recommend it when applicable.
"Tony" said:What I did say was: "I would not call the video sarcastic by any means. But it does lend itself to attack by close minded right wing fanatics." When they attack they use misinformation, misquotes, finger pointing and changes of subject to distract from the truth, never themselves providing a shred of legitimate evidence to support their claims.

Pravda, no. I prefer IRNA.

Pravda in Russian translates to “truth”…and Warren, as stated, used “truth” in his statement.
Da, Comrade

Your relaxation method does not work…a bit of time on the target range is much more relaxing.

It isn’t my method, but it works with most people. OTOH you probably are exceptional enough, that you need the target practice instead.
