No, you are mocked for making up your mind before you heard both sides of the conversation. You SHOULD be mocked for that.

Believe me, I've heard everything you've had to say on this. I've read your stuff and the stuff written by just about everyone else out there. I've weighed the arguments on both sides. And yours fall flat, again and again.

And the odd thing is, no matter how many times you're shown the falsehoods and flaws, you simply won't give up your falsehood. One can quote a very strong and crystal clear authority like Rawle, who was friends both with George Washington and Benjamin Franklin, and do you listen? No. Instead, you insult this friend of Washington and Franklin by falsely accusing him of having supported the British during the war.

By clinging with both fists to false doctrine regarding the Constitution, so hard that you will turn on and insult early American experts like Rawle, you are an enemy not only of William Rawle, but also of his friends George Washington and Benjamin Franklin, and of the Constitution they gave us.

Here is another one of your overreaching statements. I know for a fact that you haven't read everything i've had to say on this because I have argued this topic on half a dozen other websites, none of which I recall having seen you.

Given the care you have taken in making such an overreaching claim, why should we take you seriously about what you claim to have read? The Wise man doubts, the fools is certain.

I've read your stuff and the stuff written by just about everyone else out there.

No you haven't. All you are doing here is damaging your credibility.

I've weighed the arguments on both sides. And yours fall flat, again and again.

You went in with that opinion, so it is no surprise you emerge with that opinion.

And the odd thing is, no matter how many times you're shown the falsehoods and flaws, you simply won't give up your falsehood.

You presume to think that you have EVER demonstrated that my argument has a falsehood or flaw about it. That demonstration exists only in your mind. Certainly no one with objectivity is aware of it.

One can quote a very strong and crystal clear authority like Rawle, who was friends both with George Washington and Benjamin Franklin, and do you listen?

Rawles is not the only authority. He is not even the most knowledgeable authority. I would say that honor belongs to Dr. David Ramsey who was a historian and in the thick of it.

No. Instead, you insult this friend of Washington and Franklin by falsely accusing him of having supported the British during the war.

By clinging with both fists to false doctrine regarding the Constitution, so hard that you will turn on and insult early American experts like Rawle, you are an enemy not only of William Rawle, but also of his friends George Washington and Benjamin Franklin, and of the Constitution they gave us.

Now you have turned to hyperbole.
