| 101. I am not going to argue semantics. |
|
Especially since you know, and admit they were trying to incite. Your own quote of admission.----> Yes they went looking for trouble, but that doesn't excuse the ignorant responses that they received. Oh and if they had personally offended me. I would have had no problem smacking one, or more of them around. I am by no means a pacifist. |
