Oh...and I said ‘think’, not “feel” so you are wrong here too.

Apparently 'semantics' is another concept you can't grasp.

“Apparently ‘semantics’ is another concept you can’t grasp”

Sorry...wrong again

Being that semantics is the study of meaning, words are important. If I meant ‘feel’ and what it implied I would have said it. Since I didn’t it is clear that it is you that cannot grasp the concept. :D

Furthermore, the context of the sentence was a challenge to the reader to think about the brevity of the crime vs. what the punishment is, and an appeal for rationality…not an emotional persuasion. I guess that was lost on you too.
