Hello Larry,

in the last weeks you have shown me that you
don't understand (amongst other this):
Freedom

Freedom of Speech

Let's be clear here. I am just NOT going to get into an open ended debate
with you on whether I understand freedom or not. That is so laughable an
allegation that it's not worth responding to.

It seems to me that this discussion is getting too confrontational. Also,
for me the question should be WHAT EXACTLY you understand to be freedom
rather than WHETHER OR NOT you understand what freedom is. In the light of
some recent discussion, I built some assumptions for your as well as Scott's
understanding. And, yes, they seem to diverge ...

Further you don't get to dictate where the conversation goes despite your
repeated posting of the same questions and quotes, no matter how hard you try.

As far as I am concerned, answering questions does not necessarily mean to
follow a certain path in conversation.

Greetings

Horst
