If you try really, REALLY hard, perhaps you can misrepresent my position more than you already have. But it’s going to take a singular effort. You’ve already succeeded in missing it by a light year.

Look, it’s not a trick question. I am genuinely & honestly curious. Of course you don’t have to answer, but nothing bad will happen if you do. Unless you are categorically disinclined to part w the info, might you pls let me know if my surmise [about you being an engineer] is accurate? I’m not looking to say, ‘See—you’re not a lawyer’. That is the last thing on my mind. I just want to know if I intuited correctly. Thank you in advance.

Sorry for misrepresenting your position. Actually, when I said "YOUR" position I was speaking more in general terms (i.e., "your" position meaning the general position that you represent, rather than trying to very specifically determine the precise details of your personal take on it).

As far as missing things by a light year, I'd say that you seem to have missed MY position by a light year.

Liberal? Not at all.

So for someone to tell me I'm a "liberal," well, that's kind of like someone looking at a cat and describing it as "a dog."

Look, it’s not a trick question. I am genuinely & honestly curious. Of course you don’t have to answer, but nothing bad will happen if you do.

I don't know how you can say "nothing bad will happen," when plenty of "bad" things have already happened, and when "bad" things happen to me all the time as a result of my standing up for the truth.

I can't tell you how many times I've been called all kinds of names, falsely accused of being a "liberal," a "troll," "paid," etc. I can't tell you how many insults have been flung my way simply because I'm not necessarily willing to stand idly by and let people mangle and misrepresent the Constitution.

And this on a site where presumably people are supposed to agree that the Constitution is important.

Just in the last day or so I've had someone make an attempt to have me banned from the site. Why? Because I have stood up against people misrepresenting our history and our Constitution.

Unless you are categorically disinclined to part w the info, might you pls let me know if my surmise [about you being an engineer] is accurate? I’m not looking to say, ‘See—you’re not a lawyer’. That is the last thing on my mind. I just want to know if I intuited correctly. Thank you in advance.

I'm already too close to being a public figure with wacky stalkers who hate me. Sorry, but no thanks.
