I don't understand why you simply can't put the quote up in context. You're there and it's right at your fingertips so I simply don't see how it can be an onerous task for you. You seem able to find more than snippets.

I've made it clear why I do it. You prefer long blocks of text. I don't. I link or cite so people can see context. Those who want to see the whole thing have an easy way to do so.

Your actions, in only supplying snippets, appears (and I emphasize appears) to be a deceptive tactic, whether or not you intend it to be taken as such.

It's certainly an advance on those who post snippets without a link or cite, and when the quote is googled it's on a website that can't remember where it originally came from. Now, a question - do you equally feel it appears deceptive when done by those whose opinion on the NBC question accords with yours?

Yes, it applies equally in every instance and on every issue, not just this one. Or did you miss when I called others out for it as well?

Nobody learns anything when it's done like that.
You should have been here years ago when the WOsD threads were where the heat was (just look up "WOD schizophrenia") or the environmental threads.
OMG! You wouldn't believe how mangled some of the quotes came out with a wide range of information being intentionally left out, but most especially on how the studies were conducted or on how the results were determined.

I tell you what, I won't say a word to you about it from now on. I will, however, continue to provide the whole quotes even if you, or anyone else, doesn't.

So now, about my question which still remains unanswered...

Was the Naturalization Act of 1790 designed to cover a specific group of people? You know, like ambassadors serving in a foreign country?
