Ah, wonderful. Slippery slope. The most foolproof of all theories. When someone throws away a cracker that fell on the floor, they will, of course, quickly become rabid food wasters. Purchasing only to discard. That's exactly how it works.

For the life of me, I don't understand why. Someone would have to be developmentally slow to think that such a gizmo would ever be introduced to the public in the United States.

True - but it is used all the time - esp. here in America - or are you talking about SA - Amber needs to know.

Well, that is why I was saying it would never be

BTW - please refrain from relating this device to the US lest we confuse Amber again.

Interestingly, few if any of the posts specifically refer to SA and most imply a general useage.
You are sooo wrong right now, it is hilarious! You were the only one talking about the constitution! And as far as it being a load of crap, I never even considered it's application for America. And neither did the article.
And? stop thinking with your *ick and your ego, and pay attention. *stop painting my nails and pay attention - you're a sick, chauvenist man, Strand. Besides, you probably paint your nails more than I do *

Well, when people were commenting on crimes, convictions, relative use of force, etc. - I suppose they were only talking about that is SA notwithstanding I brought it up in a general American context.

BTW - I have never painted my nails - though I get manicures weekly

you're doing it again, just what he was describing! Omigod, and you don't even know it! you've been using slippery slope throughout this - and making the comment about me needing to know, is just the same thing.
And you can stop insulting me, just because I am more logical than you.

Why? why bring it up for America when they were talking about South Africa? I hold that the reasons i previously mentioned still apply. ie, you wanted to talk about something you know about, and have a better frame of reference for, as opposed to the context of the real issue at hand.
And manicures take way longer than painting nails, so either way you spend more time on your nails than I do.

I know - and it punctuated with Amber's vanity - even better

PS - don't bring up the useage of this device outside of SA lest you get flambeed

I wasn't confused about the issue,*you bastard *, I was confused as to your point of bringing up something no one was talking about.

Again, I am allowed to bring up things I think are relevant to the topic and others apparently followed my suit. I mean please show me in Heather's post where she says "FOR GOODNESS SAKE DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT THIS DEVICE IN AMERICA" If people objected to it so strngly, then they should not have engaged me in response so vociferously
