Sherman Skolnick quotes

It is obviously good and proper to respect the U.S. flag, perpetuated with the blood of American heroes. On the other hand, it can be a fatal mistake, a nuking of the Bill of Rights, not to recognize scoundrels who wrap themselves in the same flag to cover up their crimes against the American common people.
-- Sherman Skolnick

The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it.
