<div bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><div>This is totally misguided, Paul. Maybe you're right that there is a difference between the two. That doesn't make the truck driver's excuse that he's "just doing my job" any more valid. It is still a A BAD excuse on his part; the analogy shows that. Doesn't work for the Nazi guard, doesn't work for the truck driver. It is a bad excuse. Sorry. Joe<br>

<div><br></div><div>The difference between the Auschwitz guard and the megaload truck driver is the simple fact that the guard personally does illegal and immoral things and the truck driver is just driving a truck. Every time the guard beats a prisoner for not working fast enough or shoots one trying to escape, they have just committed an act that they know is wrong and are justifying it however they want to to sleep better at night. The truck driver is just putting on his blinker, down-shifting, and turning left. That's why I think these protests are misguided. Find the guy that *is* responsible for running the fracking operation and complain to him or her.</div>
