    I'm glad I'm not catholic, jewish, in the military, a lawyer, or a police officer and have no connections to anyone who is. Otherwise I might take offense to your comments.

    Roger - you've got me. How did I offend catholics. The quote is from a famous catholic of another era. Jews - I'm married to one, have attended synagogues, traveled and worked in Israel, what about you? The military? I enlisted in time of war and served three years, honorable discharge. When/where did you serve? Police officer - I support our police, always have. Sometimes I wish they would spend more time fighting organized crime instead of some of the tasks they are handed, but I guess most people think that. "Police Riot" is what the Kerner Commission concluded, and I concur as I was there and saw it first-hand. It's in the library if you care to read it.

    Of course, in any public discourse there are always those who will be offended by anything/something they don't agree with. We think differently - rightfully so - that's why we have horse races.

    I must say I am constantly surprised by some of the reactions I seem to draw. Riverside is clearly more provincial than I thought...
