Now, what you have written runs counter to what you have said in the past, specifically:

No, it doesn't; I stand by my earlier assertions. The fact is, all of the people who were legally patronizing the Sonic Drive-thru were arrested, even though they weren't part of the problem. Any Kmart customers who happened to come out to the parking lot while the thugs were conducting their illegal roundup were also arrested. What about this do you not understand???

As far as flaming goes, I'm really trying to figure out whether you're being deliberately stubborn, or you're just too stupid to understand what went on here. I was leaning toward giving you the benefit of the doubt, but since you haven't responded to any of my posts in a meaningful way, I'm beginning to doubt your intelligence.

The issue here is not about rounding up juvenile delinquents, or whether said delinquents deserved to be rounded up. The issue is one of a bunch of out-of-control thugs involved in a wholesale roundup of citizens, and the wrongfulness of said act.

No one here on FR is outraged about the legal arrest of people urinating in public, drag racing, and generally being a pain in the ass. But you can't arrest the innocent with the guilty just because they happen to be out on a public street on a Saturday night. THAT is the issue, Matt.

I know exactly what went on. I also know that with comments like the above, you would much rather bait me instead of debate me.

You can take your trolling somewhere else.
