Have you read my post subsequent to GG's post in which I explicitly explained how I am not refering to any specific government policies using the terms in question, but instead am asking if it would be permissible to post such statements similar to those that were posted on the Political board?
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/admin/20050530/msgs/511143.htmlIf not, could you please read that post, and consider this supplementary explanation:
I could as well ask is it permissible for me to call the drug war "hypocritical", "pathetic" and "a joke" in the same way that others have been permited to call the drug war "hypocritical", "pathetic" and "a joke", but so far I have exposed no feelings or opinions that I hold about the drug war one way or the other.
Having read the post subsequent to GG's and now this supplementary explanation, do you still hold that I "already have" made such statements? If so, how do you reach that conclusion contrary to my explicit explanation that I am not making such a statement?I am not sure it is permissible for me to say, as others have been permitted to say, that "I am offended" or that "I am very much offended". If I understood the extent to which I might be permitted to make such statements, I might be willing to further expose my feelings regarding a statement that attributes meaning to my writing which I have denied and which is contrary to the meaning I have carefully explained.
