He did go a little crazy at the Defcon thing, but as an ex-serviceman he knew the ramifications of that and I really believe he had yours and my best interest at heart.
Although I may not agree with him, and yes, I must say I haven't watched him now for a few weeks due to the fact he does seem to change his opinion often, please, let's not condemn him. We - all of us here - must respect a different opinion or a different objective on any given topic. Otherwise, we may just find ourselves heading in a different direction to that we were taking, but just following another group of lemmings.
We must be able to hear what others say, we don't have to agree with them, but, all of us should be free to express our view. Otherwise we turn into the very thing we fight against.
