Two points to mention.
1. As Acolytus said, this is very true with regards to their respective ruling styles and what their specific goals are. Gazelle IS right though in that he does need to "toughen up", not necessarily in regards to his OWN people, but more the neighboring ones. This bites...

I consider myself leaning towards SJW and can assure you I find his post...stupid. Like, I can't even find the right noun or adjective to describe the stupidity.
