True, it could.
> B. Statements like that, Lou, that could lead Jews and Islamic people and the others depicted in the statement to feel insulted because there is not a notation by myself ... that the statement is uncivil, are supportive.
True, it could.
> C. Statements like that, Lou, do show disrespect to the faiths in question that the statement disallows Jews and the others to enter heaven, is disrespectful to those faiths and I will not post a repudiation to that statement in and of itself, because if I do post a repudiation directly to that statement, people in theaters could panic.
False, that wasn't the right analogy. Let me try again:
Repudiations from me can be matches, too, and I didn't want to start, or stoke, a fire of hate.
