“I said nothing about having government do jack, but societal shame is a perfectly valid mechanism for modifying behavior.”
What bothers me about your statement is the fact that you actually think this landlord deserves public shaming. You are either delusional, or you are really just a Democrat pretending to be a “religious conservative!” Might want to pick up a copy of The Constitution and read through it. The Bill of Rights too!
Again, since reading comprehension doesn’t seem to be your forte, please tell my what the Constitution or bill of rights have to do with identifying and shaming people who behave disgustingly but within the law?
It is every bit as much my right to join in societal disapproval of someone doing something *I* consider heartless and disgusting as it is anybody’s right to do anything.
Your apparent general level of mental retardation keeps bringing you back to incoherence about this somehow being a legal or constitutional issue, you might try to follow along- No one said anything about using the power of government (and I sure as HELL don’t support rent control), but some things SHOULD bring shame on a person even if they are acting within their rights and the law.
If you don’t agree, fine, but don’t be such an idiot about it.
