Subject: RE: BS: Arizona law targeting ethnic studies
So now the poster imagines himself to be a Roman statesman.   Sure can't fault him on lack of imagination.

And, inter alia, he somehow sees desire for censorship. Perhaps he'd like to give some actual examples of this--as opposed to a desire for communication--which as the poster appears not to realize, can actually be done without gutter language. What a concept.

By the way, Greg, do you make your living in history, either writing it, teaching, or some other capacity?   Inquiring minds need to know. If so, I wonder why you can't tell the difference between a probability and a fact.   Perhaps you should consider another line of work---anything else.   

But it appears it would also have to be something with no interaction with humans.   Somewhat limits your choices.

I certainly pity anybody who comes into contact with you--since communication is another mystery to you, it appears.

Yes, friends and neighbors, it looks like yet another sinking ship to whose mast Greg has lashed his already water-logged carcass. He does pay a price for his fragile ego. But I'm sure he sees it all as worth it--as long as he can preserve his fantasy of being the only Mudcatter who has never made a mistake, thus has never had to admit error. Spending most of his time under water with the other wrecked vessels he has picked out, is, I'm sure, a small price to pay-- in his mind.

And of course he does manage to avoid the awful burden of having to think before hitting "send". Actually that seems to be the main problem--that demand is just too much of a burden for him.

The above is of course all meant constructively; no criticism is implied. Of course not.



Sorry (this is a recording):   the burden of proof is still on the poster in question--and no one else.

Maybe he can ask Cato about the proof on the 4 of Sally Hemings' children which he thinks were by Jefferson. The poster appears to have had no luck finding any proof anywhere else.
