Hey, how many comments did this piece receive? Who's piece is number two?— June 3, 2015 3:38 p.m.
Megan's Law, Step-Grandpa — deal with it
Lesee, given the 6,890,000 prison population, that means that there must be only 69 innocent people doing time or dying in captivity. As long as we're (thee and me) not one of the 69 (is there an irony shackle here?), who cares, eh? http://www.innocenceproject.org/ Where did the 99.999 percent figure come from?— June 3, 2015 3:25 p.m.

. . . thus far. But so far, not as long as Neanderthals or any of our other progenitors, considered to be inferior by Homo sapiens. (At least it is no longer H. sapiens sapiens--doubly wise.) If arrogant ego-centrism is more adaptive to reality than to fantasy, perhaps "he" will match the Neanderthal "record." But hey, wait--science has recently proved Walpoff and me right--them and us, we have merged! Outbreeding leads to diversity--more genes from which the slings and arrows of outrageous environment (rendered less and less habitable by us) and adaptation can select! And we know what inbreeding causes. I barely am able to take even an occasional peek at that portrait of us behind that covering cloth lest I freeze in cold, cold horror!— June 3, 2015 3:07 p.m.

Well, yeah, he is definitely not a control-freak like some "moderators." It is even more interesting to observe how many cases turn to a discussion of the fundamental principles relevant to the case--real intellect in action. And, how few comments are personal, even without the Reader's admonishment to "be nice."— June 3, 2015 2:49 p.m.

I was thinking more along the lines of how many comments your writing has GENERATED; a measure of your talent, if not supremacy. I suspect that one reason, other than your talent, is that you actually respond to comments. I'm too lazy to assemble statistics; I had hoped the Reader would have assembled them to measure the relative value of their writers.— June 3, 2015 2:40 p.m.
Megan's Law, Step-Grandpa — deal with it
Apparently, he is dealing with it--by filing an appeal. The fact that the sentence was so light is what gives me pause. Without the particulars of the evidence, one can't tell whether or not his appeal has any basis or merit.— June 3, 2015 2:34 p.m.

RE: JustWondering June 1, 2015 @ 11:30 a.m. (which see) One way to make tiny articles (or posts) more effective is to include references and links to sources. I agree with the last statement.— June 3, 2015 2:30 p.m.

RE: " Don Bauder June 1, 2015 @ 6:56 p.m. "Twister: One hears of sexually active girls who file charges of statutory rape against a boy who spurned them. But the law is the law. If she is under 16, he could be found guilty if he had sex with her." Don, I was thinking of cases where the charge was her word against his.— June 3, 2015 2:25 p.m.

I dare say, Darren is right. Keep on shouting, Darren. "Agitate, agitate, AGITATE!" --Frederick Douglass And "Never give up, never, never, never give up!" --Winston Churchill To these and other eternal verities (Semper vigilans, etc.) we owe loyalty, and to honor those who have refused to be owned by others and suffered and died for them.— June 2, 2015 7:15 p.m.
