You steered the topic towards perceptions about 9/11 and security, not I. I only responded to your comment. So why don't you stick to the topic at hand, friend?
Referring generically to certain types of people as "goons" or whatever is different from directing inflammatory comments toward specific FlyerTalk participants. "Cupcake" could -- and should, in my opinion -- be considered an example of "fighting words" and is legitimately off limits.
