While I think I like a lot of what you have to say than what he does (and that's why I'm following you), I really can't support you, when you support the idea of rigging a hearing through the use of dirty tricks.
@ShamashAran Yes, I deleted that and reposted it, just to shake a few trolls. One of whom tried to be "clever" by building his reply around an informal logical fallacy ("begging the question.")
@ShamashAran More or less. He tried to argue that rigging the outcome of a hearing in order to determine whether or not somebody was here illegally was acceptable because the accused were here illegally.
Um, no. That's the issue that the hearing is supposed to resolve.
@ShamashAran The argument implicitly builds an assumption of the validity of its own desired conclusion into its starting assumptions. One should know better than to do that, and "I don't care" isn't a counterargument.
It's just an autobiographical statement.
@ShamashAran Getting more than a little disappointed by what I'm seeing. I thought that some of the people in here were better than this.
