> NO one here is suggesting forgoing due process and it would serve you well, if you want to have conversations on this website to stop presuming what posters are saying here.

Ma’am, I beg to differ: I suggest you go back and re-read the thread carefully. More than quite a few posters suggest taking measures that forego due process.

For example, post #3: probably looks familiar because it should. In it you suggested the suspect be hanged “by the scrotum.” To the best of my knowledge, with or without a trial, not even in Texas would playing out that particular punitive fantasy form any part of “Due Process”.

I note also from this thread that this, apparently, isn’t the first suspect in this case, neither is it the first one where people have called for summary Justice.

So when you write:

> NO one here is suggesting forgoing due process and it would serve you well...

you may as well save your sanctimony: it is hollow and does you no credit.

I’m not singling you out in particular, nor am I trying to pick on you. However, you chose to advise me I was making presumptions, and I felt it only fair to point out that they weren’t presumptions but facts.

I’ve said it before and it bears repeating: people LAUGH at Conservatives because some folk have this inescapable urge to write twoddle that makes the rest of us look like ignorant red-necks. From there it becomes much too easy for Liberals to shoot down nearly any of our reasoned arguments: they have all the ammunition they need because we have handed it to them.

Words from our own Discussion Forums, from Threads of our own making. It doesn’t even require cleverness from their part, or hardly any effort.

So why don’t we all go drink hemlock instead? Seems like a much faster way to destroy Conservatism and would avoid the embarassment of us handing to the Liberals the arguments against our Credibility that they aren’t smart enough to think up by themselves.

Understanding that you assume that those with gross punishment befitting a gross crime mean lynch mob or vigilante justice, you assume a prejudice that cannot be overcome. Pity, but you have the right to assume just as you have the right to be an “a” because of it.

Continue to champion for the molester and then explain your way out of it and many here will make assumptions about you too.
