      @Corpus_no_Logos It's part of larger argument that MS makes false, inflammatory statements about ethnic minorities.

      @HeerJeet In other words, it doesn't make a case for the point being argued - it's a waste of my time. If he's a bigot, show it.

      @HeerJeet I struggle to imagine what the point of offering it was. I think it's yet another waste of time that doesn't make your case.

      @Corpus_no_Logos Point is that MS recycles racist urban legends.

      @HeerJeet Am I to take that as you claiming anyone who says the "knockout game" has racial roots is a racist? Including black spokespeople?

      @Corpus_no_Logos This is part of larger pattern of Steyn recycling inflammatory, often false & defamatory stories about ethnic minorities.

      @HeerJeet A pattern I've pointed out you've done nothing to show. You're just repeating yourself and expecting people to believe you.

      @Corpus_no_Logos Please read Doug Saunders' Myth of Muslim Tide for sense of how divorced MS's writing is from reality.

      .@HeerJeet After nearly a dozen tweets, you're supporting your position with, "Look it up." Why should anyone believe your cries of racism?

      @Corpus_no_Logos Because if there is an authoritative book on a subject, that's preferable to twitter. Books > 140 characters.

          .@HeerJeet You want me to buy and read an entire book so I can see you're right. Or, I could just not believe you and assume you're lazy.

          @Corpus_no_Logos I sent you links to two substantial pieces showing MS's recycling myths about ethnic minorities.
