Context is fine, but you have to admit it's not something that is usually used too deeply on this forum, so I suppose I didn't realise you were being "subtle" and for that I apologise.
Just because you do not believe in capital punishment I did not imply that you were one of the touchy-feelie lefties I hate so much, you assumed that, the way I assumed you were calling me silly.
This is clearly not a court of law, or most people would be referred to as "the defendant". That was humour :-)

I could not care less if you started your post with the line
''Don't be silly...'' because I know it's not the end of the world. It really ... is not that big a deal. I would never have called you up on it and I never would have bothered to really mention it. It's just ... nothing, really.
Can't really see much generalization at all in my posts, considering I was the one who made the point initially that it is
not black and white and Capital Punishment
is down to personal opinion.
I certainly did not generalize to the level of the whole salt tears for paedophiles shtick which in fairness is a bit ludicrous and unfair, even to those kerazy lefties you hate so much.
As for being provocative, this defendant is guilty as charged.
