aw. RE: Why did Elser plant the bomb?

[Kai Frederik Lorentzen]

This was, obviously, an answer to the Stauffenberg thread.

That you compare fictional Vond to all-too-real Hitler, is scary.

And: Do you really think that Elser's attempt was morally wrong?!?

B-but I forgot:
 
"Jesse brought home as an assignment from school 'write an essay on
What It Means To Be An American.'
'Oboy, oboy,' Reef had this look on his face, the same look his own father
used to get before heading off for some dynamite-related activities.
'Let's see that pencil a minute.'
'Already done.' What Jesse had ended up writing was,
IT MEANS TO DO WHAT THEY TELL YOU AND TAKE WHAT THEY GIVE YOU AND DON'T GO 
ON STRIKE OR THEIR SOLDIERS WILL SHOOT YOU DOWN.
'That's what they call the 'topic sentence'?'
'That's the whole thing.'
'oh.'
It came back with a big A+ on it." (Against the Day, p. 1076)
