      People are glad that these people have been arrested for carrying explosive devices and you’re drawing parallels to racism because of it.

      That’s your argument, and it’s absolutely ridiculous.

      And it’s very funny that you’re calling me dishonest, when earlier in the thread I mentioned that nobody was being punished for actions of their state, and you claimed you never said that. I then pasted you saying exactly that and you went off talking about something tangentially related.

        No, what’s ridiculous is you lying by claiming I said they are racist, and then turning around and lying and saying that I’m on people for not being “up in arms” about it, when all I’ve been doing is pointing out the injustice of the prison terms. I’m not even up up in arms about it. I just think it’s wrong. But, don’t worry, I won’t lose any sleep if these people do jail time.

        You keep flailing around trying to make my argument ridiculous, but all it does is reveal that you’re uninterested in actually thinking about this, but instead just making up reasons in order to claim I’m wrong.

        mentioned that nobody was being punished for actions of their state, and you claimed you never said that

        Yeah, because I said people want them to be punished because of actions of their state, not that they were being punished for actions of their state. At first I thought this was probably just a case of poor reading comprehension, but in light of your current dishonesty, I’m not so sure anymore. And, besides, even if I was being dishonest, that doesn’t preclude you from being dishonest.

          You can write walls of text about how “that’s not what I said” all you like, but it’s clear to anyone reading what you’ve said that you tried to compare racism to people being glad about these morons being arrested.

          You also tried to claim you didn’t say “unjustifiable position of thinking individuals should be punished for the actions of their state”, when you said exactly that in your previous message, when referring to people traveling with bullets they brought in their own luggage.

          If anyone’s being dishonest, it’s you.

            You already quoted it, anyone coming here can see that what you claim I said I didn’t. Screen capping it was entirely unnecessary. but good effort.
