but it doesn't matter - you put it forward as "my opinion"
Blatant lie Jim.
I stated, REPEATEDLY, that it was "not my opinion."

It was the opinion of all those eminent BP commentators.
You can claim it was not their opinion if you like.

I am happy to dispel your concern.
I have no opinion or any knowledge about BP culture.
I do not care if they do it for cultural reasons or not.
I just want them to stop.

Now Jim.
How many non BP cases of this crime can you recall?
