Brilliant
Who would think someone of Dershowitzâs heritage would defend a racist?
It usually means that the word was not capitalized(i.e. the beginning of a sentence) in the original. Necessary to indicate you are not quoting verbatim.
Once an English majorâŚ
Womp, womp, Alan⌠Womp, womp.
Children are ripped from their parents arms and sent who knows where, asylum seekers are being cruelly, detained, children are being held in detention camps, an entire group of people are being categorized as criminals, animals, and savages and Dershowitz is being shunned at Marthaâs Vineyard. Seriously, this man needs help.
It indicates a case change. So, presumably, in Dershowitzâs original editorial, it was lowercase, and TPM appears to believe they are quoting Shakespeare, so they put it in brackets to cap it. Completely ridiculous and distracting and is not used in most published books.
Faux-conservatives like to go around saying, âActions Have Consequencesâ.
Indeed they do, counselor, indeed they do.
Hobnob with child abusers, racists, corrupt thugs and incompetent rageaholics, and polite society will shun you. Untwist your knickers, and be thankful âshunningâ is all you are getting.
I propose this responsorial:
Womp, womp. Amen.
Heâd better be careful which if any restaurants he goes to because wait staff and noogies.
If heâd just vacation at Mar-I-lago (after paying all of the membership fees, etc), heâd definitely be welcomed by the Trump family with open palms.
No, not necessary, unless you are quoting Shakespeare, for example, and parsing his every word or are a lawyer writing a brief or a decision or whatever it is they write.
To be clear: brackets should be used elsewhere in a quotation to indicate any sort of textual change but not at the beginning to indicate a case change.
Claus von Bulow will still be his friend.
Yikes.
True, I overstated a bit. Do find it helpful to indicate a
Itâs called freedom of association, Alan, and it works both ways, and it doesnât violate any of your rights. You should crack a law book once in a while and try to get a grasp on these principles. Or stop showing up on Fox all the time telling us how smart and accomplished you are.
Or give OJ a call. Heâll understand.
Maybe if more awful people were ostracized for awful decisions the world would be a better place
My apologies if somehow I have started a grammar war.
Lets move to a calmer subject.
PC or Mac?
One should not be shunned for oneâs political choices. But supporting Trump goes way beyond âpolitical.â Supporting Trump involves moral choices, and being shunned for those is one of the ways society polices itself.
When I whipped out my NAMBLA membership card, even my own family started edging away.
He is slipping. Years ago he would have seen the futility of this idiotic tirade. Maybe he and Ghoul-liani can split a case of Boost or Nepro.
Waiting for some Linux nerd to show up. Theyâre frigginâ hilarious.
