Re: Terrorism????
Just wanted to say that you said my thoughts perfectly!
Nothing against the "mature" work of Mr. Hickman, (I love Dragonlance), but this is ludicrous. If you thought that the sealed pages in Dragon were inappropriate, then just say so. Don't make it sound like you were a victim of a horrible tragedy.
Hickman is more than welcome to his opinion (as we all are) but give your opinion straight out. Say you don't approve or you thought it was tasteless, don't call it terrorism.
Personally, my husband & I get Dragon in the mail, and we received the issue on the same day. I don't see what the hubbub is about...but hey, that's just my opinion.
ps. just for the record, this does not effect my opinion of his writing. i am still a dragonlance fan...
Hardhead said:Even if you dont' agree with that work (and that stance is understandable), calling it terrorism simply because you didn't agree with it is irresponsible, and worse, it's a insult...to people that die in terrorist attacks for Mr. Hickman to equate him seeing magazine articles he doesn't like to others who are killed or disfigured, or lose loved ones to real terrorist attacks, and using the world "terrorism" over such a small thing, which is not terrorism by *any* definition of the word, trivialises the term.
Mr. Hickman should be ashamed.
