12. Hahahaha. If anyone is parsing it's you.
Edited on Fri Apr-08-11 06:19 PM by Shaktimaan
To say that government funded groups can't do something is in no way outlawing it! Hahaha. You know it too. Your position is absurd.
Individuals can observe the nakba. Organized groups can observe the nakba. Even unorganized groups can observe the nakba. In fact anyone can observe the nakba. You just can't use government funds to observe the nakba.

Big dif between putting a restriction on government funding and actually outlawing something.

In America you aren't allowed to use government funds to promote any specific religion. Would you say that is the equivalent of the US outlawing Christianity? You seem to really be swallowing a lot of Republican rhetoric lately. Are we going to start hearing about the "war on christmas" next from you? (Oh, let me guess, so maybe Christmas isn't "technically" outlawed in America but it's just parsing and being nitpicky to say so, right?)

It is the exact same hysterical argument that you are making.
