28. Rights Are Indeed Great
But I can't help but notice that you made a bit of a leap of something.

You said, in an earlier post, that "As long as you don't send them a bomb-o-gram I figure they count themselves lucky."

I said that I would never ever bomb anything.

I said that I considered bombing anything to be as anathema to me as crushing the head of an infant.

In response, you said that you "figure that it isn't an infant until it takes it's first breath."

And you said that I "obviously" feel differently.

All I said was that I consider the crushing of a head of an infant to be anathema.

You assumed, I think, that I was talking about the head of a fetus that had yet to take its first breath.

I wasn't.

See how unwarranted assumptions work to get in the way of productive discussion?
