I said it was you opinion & I respected your right to your opinion.

I never mentioned that anyone should be shipped anywhere, so you are now introducing utter BS into the conversation. It would be impossible to ship even 1-billon people to locations where it could be observed for various reasons, let alone the outrageous 7-billion number to chose to use.

So now you're hyping for the sake of supporting your argument that my statemen was ridiculous, when claims like this are in fact what are ridiculous.

Perhaps I should have stated it thusly. Everyone who has an opportunity so see a total eclipse of the sun, should take advantage of the opportunity.

Would that have placated you? I frankly didn't see the need to go to that extent. But in today's world there is always someone who is offended in some form or fashion. So I guess I deserve what I got from you for expressing my opinion in a way that you found cause to say I was ridiculous for saying what I said.

I'll leave you with this. Enjoy.

You’re being beyond silly here.

I had posted my distaste for those who traveled to such locations for bragging rights for this type of event—and you posted that everyone should have the opportunity to experience such.

So you were offering your take in response and contrast to mine. I merely pointed out that your take would involve the mass shipping of people around the planet for near nothing-burgers.

If you don’t want to debate, don’t offer views to undercut an earlier Freeper post.
