Reply #59: i think you're right (re: rational response) in this ugly situation

at this point, who cares who hit who first. they both need to stop. both of them need to say enough is enough and each go to their respective corners and seek out how the rest of the world feels. these guys are so boiled up in their own tit-for-tat (as opposed to tidbit) that i'll bet they've lost track of who hit who first. it's time they just shut up, put down their weapons, and take a 72 hour breather. they do it for 3 days they should be able to do it for a week. etc etc etc.

but it aint gonna happen with them acting like fools trying to be blameless.
