Again, any man who rapes anyone whould be tried and convicted. But the rule of law must prevail over vigilantism - should we go back to lynching or beating people we just think are guilty

I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT AMERICA!!!

and that example is specious, far fetched, and extreme for what we are actually talking about. Ridiculous logic for the situation, and you know it.

Obviously you can comment on it, But the use of the term feminazi, coupled with that comment, rubbed me the wrong way, is what I'm saying. You can do anything you want, I'm not the boss of you.

I was paraphrasing her own words from a prior discussion in another thread

If I am mistaken regarding others' intent, I am contrite.

But, when I posited the Constitutional question, people responded. Do you think they thought I was talking about the SA Const.?

So, I can never comment on anything germaine I'll be sure and remind you of that rule the next time you do it

I said I was insulted.
You can comment on something we're not even talking about, but why would you? To take control of the conversation? To show off your knowledge? I'm not trying to be rude, I just don't see the point of that when no one was talking about it.

The condom isn't for america. Why are you talking about it in the context of America? I don't get it, it is not logical, it doesn't make sense. We were all talking about South Africa.

I am not and otheres were not as well - so do not talk to me or us if you find it too confusing.

Who is she?

I scrolled back through, and I couldn't find the part where people were talking about the constitution or America. Except you.

Yes, we were both insulted. Mea Culpa. I was insulted by her being insulted.

Lord you have a bee in your bonnet. Unless I am mistaken and as you have already said, I can talk about anything I like. In this case, I was talking about the relevant and germaine topic of the application of this device in America. Sorry if that makes me sound like a braggart or rude.

Well, when people replied to my initial thread - what were they talking about? All that talk of conviction, crime, etc.

You better show me, because as far as I can tell, we were talking about South Africa. Which is the point, anyway, even if you did try to steer it to America.

So, no one here thought - wow this could or could not work here in America or elsewhere or even in general - I think you know better than that.

South Africa.
Even if they weren't, what is the point of talking about it in America? Again, it wasn't even mentioned for America. It's totally moot to talk about it in American context.
