"While you were somewhat level-headed in your posts at the time this story broke, you also made many comments that indicated you believe O’Keefe was guilty and would be going to prison." In all of you citations, you have not been able to cite where I stated that they were absolutely guilty of a crime.

BTW-Do you have difficulty with every Freeper who in the past has questioned the innocence of those that have been arrested for a crime?

Since, I am sure if you were to look, there would be thousands of posts throughout the years where posters have suggested that a suspect in guilty of a crime, even though the trial had not taken place.

A poster said your posts all seemed to have an assumption that O’Keefe was already guilty. I listed those I thought applied. I even gave you credit for ‘not guilty until proven’.

Your comments, though, were along the lines of the assumption that O’Keefe was going to jail. You weren’t giving him the benefit of the doubt. And you don’t have to.

I never said that you stated ‘they were absolutely guilty’.

AND, I don’t consider you in the same category as the others mentioned in that first post about this subject. I only listed your comments, because I wanted to point out that while others might come to the conclusion you were proclaiming guilty without a trial, you really weren’t.

Isn’t that what the lines I posted of yours, show?

Nope. Depends on exactly what they say, and who they are condemning.

Yep. Been involved in many of them. Have had some very good conversations with those opposed to my take on the issue, and hopefully profited by what I learned from the debate.
