Do you show up for a street fight with a fighter or someone who's going to tuck their tail between their legs and run? The street fighter has a code of unionism, the one who runs I'm afraid, has a code of one, himself. Why else would he run to a position of perceived safety except only to protect himself.
I might completely disagree with some positions of those on the forum, but they have my respect because they are willing to take a beating and continue to fight.
