That last comment of yours was well-put, IggyKoopa. I've been lurking here for a while now, enjoying the debate, and I have to say that Evilbeagle seems very fond of herself. She claims a lot of strength and independence, but I don't think she realizes why she has what she has.
More bizarre assumptions to suit your argument: because the invitations were taken away, the teacher didn’t take him aside. Huh? That association simply doesn’t follow logically. And confiscation, by its nature, is not necessarily permanent – but you've just described it as such, only because it plays into your point of view. (You don’t get your pot back because pot is illegal; invitations are not.)
You’ve been doing this in nearly every post, and it’s bizarre to me that you don’t even see it. Or maybe you do, but you ignore the inconvenience. The thing is, you make some valid points, but they’re really easy to disregard when they’re surrounded by so much nonsense and empty hostility.
"I have made it clear if something is unknown." Uh, nooo, you haven’t at all. I’ve been following these comments since the top, and you’ve attributed all kinds of behavior to the teacher that the article just doesn’t support. For example, just one post earlier: "So this kid is left with no invitations for his friends, an adult humiliating him and dressing him down rather than tactfully explaining what was wrong with what he did." That’s four "facts" in just one sentence, none of which have any apparent basis in truth. And not a clarification to be found.
I've enjoyed watching you and c-dub get yourselves all twisted up over this, and while I don’t really agree with either of you, at least he stuck to the facts of the article. I’m not sure why you’re so bent out of shape about the teacher anyway, since they were doing their job according to school policy. (Sure, you can dispute the policy, but I wouldn’t expect a teacher to violate it on something as small as this, even if they didn’t agree with it.) Hurling absurd insults around like "harpy" and "tool" without any evidence either way just makes you come across like a lunatic.
