The discussion has become stupid, if only because everybody complains, yet I'm
the only one, so far, that's presented a positive construct. Everybody else
just opposes whatever anyone else says. What does that tell you?
There's a wide range of what folks perceive as reality. At one extreme are
folks like me who think the law should be strictly obeyed, and at another
extreme are guys like Sellam, and he's not alone in this, who believe that
everybody should do what he, Sellam, wants. There are probably other, equally
extreme positions. Somewhere, however, there must be a common ground. The
trick is for people to look for that common ground rather than trying to go off
by themselves to do what they want, irrespective of anyone else's rights.

I'd rather say that the American public does a lousy job of keeping its
perception of reality in line.
