Somehow, I do not equate the "civil" war in Chechia
with a little league ball game in Pennsylvania.  But
it the "analogy" fits your agenda, use it.  Reference
to it certainly increases the fear we should all have
about living in this country.

Maybe if you don't want to be considered a "wannabe,"
you should stick to those things you know about.
