My second comment I laid out exactly how your comment read and gave you every opportunity to correct how I read it. You didn't take the opportunity that was handed to you, I'm not interested in it now. You didn't take the opportunity because you didn't want anything more than an argument.

People don't get arrested for "harsh language" where I live, that doesn't make it less of a crime to harass people. My friend was in the hospital longer than her ex was held after he shoved her down the stairs. Does that stop being assault because the cops didn't care ?

As a little bonus I think it would be a blessing to Americans if the first and second amendment where taken away. At this point they are just pointless distractions keeping everybody busy and convincing the majority of people they have this special American brand "freedom" while the government takes away everything else. We have hate speech laws in plenty of countries and aren't afraid of loosing our freedoms on account of actually having quite a few.

You must know me better than I know myself...

So what did this comment add to the conversation ? If it's not about just being pissy pants and getting into internet argument explain what it adds.

Edit: Actually from yesterday,

    If you mean almost never than you really know your stuff.

What did this add to the conversation as well ? You're right I don't understand you as well as you understand yourself so help me understand. How did these two comments do anything for this conversation beyond antagonise.
