You seem to think you're so smart, show us some research of your own to
refute his comments. What he's saying doesn't sound so bad to me, and your
responses are *just* as unsupported...

What John S is saying is just common sense. The onus is on the person
making the assertion, not on the rest of us to disprove the assertion.
Normally, more than just "sounds good to me" is required, unless you're
posting from rec.bias.****forbrains.

Since you apparently suffer from some of the characteristics "Will" is
referring to here's a simple lesson in sentence structu

Statements such as the ones "Will" made are also known as assertions.
In his many statements "Will" asserted many things about people he
fells are of lower class and apparent limited mental capacity.
Statements normally invite questions and comments.

Questions such as the ones I raised about statements and assertions
made by "Will" are normally invatations for response and supporting
comments. So far "Will" has found himself tongue tied and unable to
respond. Maybe you "Simracer" as his sockpuppet would care to provide
some documentation for those unusual statements.
