Rules of Engagement
In case you were wondering, voice raising and finger pointing … verboten. Especially when directed at people who have fought for their country.* Power, when being spoken truth to, must exercise utmost restraint in reply. Certainly avoiding any semblance of voice raising or fingerpointing at people who have fought for their country. At anyone else, OK. Voice lowered, fingers at ease, OK.
Also, on those occasions where a voice is raised or a finger is pointed, it should be fully and exhaustively examined by America’s free, anti-voice-raising, non-fingerpointing press.
Just so we’re all clear on that. As you were.
*People who have fought for their country are some of our more sensitive Concerned Americans. As former soldiers, they are by and large unaccustomed to raised voices and pointed fingers, and as traumatized HalliBushton victims, they also pose of high risk of fullblown PTSD wig-out episodes. Many of them are likely to react by moving deep into the woods and rigging tripwires around their cabins. Therefore, all are asked to avoid raising voices or pointing fingers at them. All other free-speech rights hold, pending further notice.
