Damn that wiggle room! I hate wiggle room and loop holes. The worst people are always the ones who benefit. I'd be really interested to hear some examples, even though they won't help my argument, I do like learning new stuff (lifelong attempt to reduce the extent of my general ignorance)

I guess that makes slave owners parents of the Josef Fritzl variety... Their "parents" sure did a number on them...

Yoink. I'm quoting you verbatim on the book of face. Thank you.

Almost certainly. I am aware of the connotations of what I'm about to say, but I sometimes wish I had a magic wand that I could just wave at people and say "Nope, nice try, but you're not allowed to vote anymore, you got it wrong and as salt in the wound all the people you are prejudiced against get a double vote."

Seriously! Thank you. I am but a simple modern languages major, and so have few tools at my disposal other than basic human decency, but I pretty much said what you did, just a little less eloquently and with a few more insults. I just can NOT believe that this person exists in the real world with access to technology…

Please! Arm me with your knowledge weapons!

Oh yes, please allow me to share some nuggets of joy:

So I'm in a facebook argument (I am aware of the futility) with an apologist for slavery, and he just called me missy!! I need support in the form of feminist ire!
