What's with this persistent attempt to try and speculate about my mental state?You have been emotional the whole time. Your first comment with the block capitals a prime example, and the rest of your practice has just been an emotive, like-hunting, exercise wanting to whip up a storm because you're having one of your argument ticks. You've tried to suggest agendas attached to the original news story, which isn't the case either.
If you really care about the ill taste of all of this, then perhaps just stop now and leave the discussion to get back on track?
