I stood behind Lucy Lawless while boarding a plane at LAX and... that’s it.

My point, and I’m done trying to express it given your refusal to even try to understand it, is that saying “Muslims are intolerant” is a completely farcical assertion to make based on 1,370 attacks out of 1.5 billion humans. By this logic, American white people as a group (they are not a race) are overwhelmingly

Ummm.... 1,370 attacks. Out of 1.5 billion muslims. That would be a percentage of what, 0.09%? I’m very curious what your rigorous definition of intolerance is. I mean, you’re willing to label 22% of the world’s population as intolerant simply by pointing at a single aggregate number.

I’m sorry, but you are assuming the premise and making the “figures” you cite (that you actually didn’t) fit your perspective.

“Large faction”?  There are over 1 billion muslims in the world.  What, exactly supports that assertion?

What an amazingly ignorant and unfounded generalization. You might want to actually spend time with Muslims before ... oh whatever, just spout whatever baloney feeds your id.

That’s a child’s answer. As I made clear—there are certain perspectives unworthy of tolerance because they deny other’s fundamental humanity. Keep thinking that perspective is just “both sides”... it’s not.

“dismiss their grievances”

“a straightforward, innovation-less version of the track” 

I just do not understand how Christians can read the same book I do and then take exactly the wrong lesson from it (spoiler: I do).

Great point, I also forgot that.

“An appeal to decorum suggests that you’re just putting on a pretty show but saying nothing of substance. To suggest as such would imply that she’s accomplished nothing of note to be worthy of discourse, and that’s pretty disrespectful of her and her accomplishments.”

She took the only control that was available to her given that it is impossible to “control a narrative” in an environment you don’t control and in which the person you are interacting with is operating in bad faith.

Translation: “I’m really annoyed by uppity women and think decorum is far more important than punishing the abuse of power dynamics.”

To those arguing, “well of course, because it is the only interesting thing about her.”

But variety is the spice of life!

No, because the costs can’t be related to the specific labor of the activity if it is inherent to the agency’s mission. Meaning, receiving and dealing with complaints against organizations licensed by their own agency are part of their mission. The cost has to ancillary to the activity. For example, the IRS charges

There are Federal rules and guidelines on user fees and what is reasonable.

While it is a cool gimmick, I have one and I question why. I also question “it’s super light”.
