Thanks Big Al. Make lots of friends here do you?
I have been reading @BigAl07 posts over time.
He's on the right side of the fence for sure.
He really works hard on this limited audience to instill a sense of responsibility we all have to protect our freedom by educating the public at large (hint: those who make the laws that weight on us).
However, one of the problems with forums is one of communication.
I am not talking about people who can't or won't write properly, with full sentences, punctation etc.
I feel often times, it is just simple misinterpretation from reading what someone wrote vs. what they actually meant.
How that is comprehended depends on one's own knowledge of the topic, personality, education, maturity, exposure to other humans and the world ....or whether they were reading but not fully focused etc.
Bergson explained If communication fails, it's at least half your fault.
These two gentlemen am sure would actually agree if this conversation had taken a different turn.
But you notice each is not addressing all the valid/ indirect arguments presented by the other.

Sometimes it's a debate technique. Other times it is just because the parties kind of agree but don't realize it.
