-Caveat Lector-
hmmm... greetings michael, regardless of your ill humoured and somewhat
aggresive reply to my query about what the passage refers to, i ask you
again what that 3/5s comment is alluding to. i do not have a belief to
support in this instance- but i was surprised and interested in the vehement
replies.
you are obviously frustrated by the suggestion made, but i do not understand
why. so please tell me what it *does* mean- i am genuinely curious as i had
not known about it before.
i know you are very interested in the constitution and i respect the
knowledge you have of it and so far i have been putting your aggression
regarding the suggestion down to not suffering fools gladly. is that the
case?
maybe the theory about the 3/5scalculation being anything to do with slaves
is totally wrong- but i would appreciate you clearing up what it does
actually refer to. i mean, i know you said it is only about representation-
but surely you can expand on it a little bit more because to the untrained
eye- it certainly looks like it is referring to the representation of
another group of people- and slaves seem the obvious choice due to their
omission from the list of people.
but Mumpsimus, please understand that it is no surprise that people allege
your association with- or even that you may be Dick Jones- your prose style
is interestingly similar and i am wondering that if the allegations are true
regarding either your real identity (if it is assumed)- or your association
with dick and the boys.... then maybe *you* have a belief system to protect
when you argue that the constitution is in no way relating to slavery in the
quoted passage. please enlighten me if you wish.
and one last thing- why do you even bother to split hairs regarding
"english" and "english language"? it is so wet of you to do that, very close
to basing any return arguement on the spelling mistakes i may make rather
than what i am trying to communicate to you- which you fully understood, of
course.
and wait until you can use the english language properly- rather than the
bastardised (not bastardized) "american english" before you begin to lecture
me on my language.
kind regards
c.
