Reply #35: Uh, I've clearly stated what the criteria are.

Sorry you seemed to have missed that on multiple occasions now.

The Tiers are important so that people understand we're not talking about life imprisonment for kids having sex in the park.

Right - like the guy that robbed the Wendy's and is a Tier III sex offender. He's obviously a very dangerous child molester. I still don't know how you missed that - it's right in the fracking statute that you linked to.

Do you hear that whooshing sound right above your head? It's the point.

And kids do end up stuffed in freezers, so sigh for them instead of child molestors.

I'm sighing because you don't seem to have read a single one of my posts. I'm sighing because it's frustrating when you try to explain something to someone only to find out that they really don't want to understand what it is that they're talking about in that they prefer make pronouncements from on high rather than have their opinions informed by, you know, reality. I'm sighing because it's always kind of annoying when you try, in good faith, to explain something to someone only to be met with bullshit hyperbole.

Maybe I'm being too harsh. Maybe I overestimated your knowledge about things like how the government works, about how legislation works, about how the courts work. Maybe I should have started of with smaller concepts like this idea of separation of powers, or what the legislative branch does. If that's the case, then I would have been happy to do that. But, instead of just copping to your ignorance you'd rather just spew venom at me.

That's okay - I'm tired of this. Feel free to stew in your own pot for as long as you'd like.
