My friend came by the house today.
"Come on," he said. "I'm going down to the cemetary to kick this guy's butt."
"Oh," I said. "What's he doing at the cemetary?"
"Well, ya know all those people that died in the bus wreck? He gonna visit thier graves."
"Oh. Well, lots of folks have been to the graveyard to pay thier respects. That was a horrible crash."
"Yeah, but this guy is different. He lived next door to the busdriver."
"So? That doesn't mean that they were friends."
"Maybe not, but you know how bad that area of town is. Everyone that lives over there is a crimminal. Did you know that the busdriver was drunk when he wrecked?"
"Um..yes...I know..."
"Well, this guy drinks, too. HE. DRINKS. Can you believe it? How could any decent person ever have...alcohol? It's just...wrong."
"Umm...lots of people in our country drink. It's been that way for a long time."
"Yeah, and they should all be shot. It's just awful."

"Oh, o.k. So...you don't like him because he drinks and he lived next to the drunk busdriver? And you want to kick his butt?"
"Yeah. I didn't really care too much about it, until he started shopping for a generator, though. I mean, we can't have a guy like that buying a generator."
"Um..right. Why not? I have a generator."
"Hey...you aren't like this guy. He's a crimminal, I told you that already. If he has a generator, he could use it to make a bomb. Then, he could blow up your house."
"So...you want to kick his butt because you are afraid if he has a generator, he will blow up your house?"
"Yeah. And the other stuff. You know...he drinks, and he knew the busdriver. Are you comin' or what?"
"Um...no thanks, man. You go ahead. I think I'll just watch some T.V."
"Hmm. I guess I know who my TRUE friends are. Don't expect an invitation to my birthday party. Not with that snotty attitude!"
"Umm..ok...bye bye."
Fair assessment?

{chuckle} Very apt and effective analogy.
And I'll bet you lunch that half the people don't get it -- and many who do get it will be furious with you for it.

Ahmadinejad is not just next door to someone who did something bad. He is an anti-Semitic, anti-American, anti-women, hatemonger who is desperately trying to get a big big bomb so he can kill a lot of people he does not like. And he is not 'firing on all four cylinders' if you know what I mean.
He shouldn't be allowed in this country at all, let alone making propaganda site-seeing trips around New York City.

I can feel your sentiments,but, not a fair assessment. You need all sides of the story for anyone else to believe that it is a fair assessment if you want it to be fair. No puns intended at all !

nice, but it will go over a lot of peoples heads.
Now add the fact that the town mayor is condemning the guy while going to the airport looking for drunk bus drivers.

you forgot to mention that this drunk neighbor is now training the new drivers and is sending them out drunk and telling them to go and kill his passengers,..not only that, he brags about it to anyone who will listen!!! and he just so happens to hate one part of town particuarly, it's called JEWLAND,..and he talks about wiping out that part of town altogether...OFF THE FREAKING MAP!! BUT A BUNCH OF STINKING LIBS SAY 'ITS FREEDOM OF SPEECH!! WHAT HARM CAN HE DO?'.....fools.

Did your friend hold any DEATH TO AMERICA rallies?
Did your friend vow to wipe his neighbors off the map?
