Message-ID: <3448@decwrl.UUCP> Date: Mon, 5-Aug-85 12:03:21 EDT Article-I.D.: decwrl.3448 Posted: Mon Aug 5 12:03:21 1985 Date-Received: Tue, 6-Aug-85 12:30:04 EDT Sender: daemon@decwrl.UUCP Organization: Digital Equipment Corporation Lines: 30 Trade the buggers into peace. Change them by giving them the stuff we have and they don't. Too bad the settlers didn't think of that and load up the indians with repeating rifles. Think of how different it might have all turned out! Sure and begore it's all only a misunderstanding ain't it? I mean they're just folks like us as little Samantha (remember her - ain't you glad she wasn't on 007?) showed us. You asked if anyone felt like expanding on your idea . . . welllllll. How about next time the mob tries to shake you down you just let them have what they want. That should do away with their wish to be naughty! Sort of doing away with stealing by legalizing taking things not your own. We could empty our prisons, eh? And those cranky Russians, they don't really want to own me (I mean who believes that Marxist crap, eh?), they just want my credit card and all the goodies. Next time my kid cranks for something I'll just give it to him/her (the little person) and do away with the problem, right? Gee, your mind is like a breath of fresh air. From the steppes!
