If a person isn't 100% sure that he knows all the facts and if the issue does not directly concern him, then he should keep his big mouth shut.

Good advice in general. A couple of great posts Easy, lots of good stuff and funny too. 

As to Alan's comments and picked up by you on how to react. No one said you should be an Organian. This is not a Black and White thing, many shades of gray in how to react to what you are faced with. BUT also you have to take into account each persons circumstances, Nick is in his 60's (I believe) and most often these days won't face many nut cases being belligerent towards him. I was one the strongest guy's on the planet and it showed/shows, the only people that ever gave me shit were sent to do so. So that may skew our viewpoint, and since Nick and I have both seen/experienced the downside, we are passing on a little wisdom to all.
