>Nope. Unless, that is, that your intent is to show that facts and logic have nothing to do with formation of your opinions.<
You talk about facts and logic and you base your tirade on your own very subjective "reasoning" and interpretation of what you perceive someone else's statements to mean?
Example: M said >As for Dr. Lee, if the man is guilty of treason, I believe he should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. If he is not guilty, I believe we should leave him alone.<
You reply >Would you please take a moment to think about that? If he's guilty, then he'll be punished -- but, under our system of law, he has to be tried to be found guilty. So, how can he be left alone if he is suspected of a crime<
Mary is not allowed to say that "if" the man is not guilty, he should be left alone?
One is not allowed to hold the opinion that innocent people should not be falsely accused and subjected to all the economic damage and humiliation that that would entail?
You endorse the concept of accusing innocent people and then subjecting them to all the indignities of a criminal investigation.....even if they are not guilty?
Your logic escapes me.
To cut to the chase,your comments, particularly about "racism", are inflammatory and I think you may very possibly be a jerk. No absolute facts, just a "logical" opinion. |
