    The reasoning for the punctuation of “Jr.,’s” is pretty straightforward. It’s a collision of conventions.http://nyer.cm/WdmFASe

        Mightn't we concentrate, instead, upon the correct treatment of treasonous oligarchs?

        If anything has to go, it should, obviously, be the comma.

        srsly, though, the purpose of punctuation is to increase clarity of expression. If it makes your meaning less clear, remove it.

        Double quotes around the period-comma-apostrophe! That is some eloquent shade.

        I followed until the possessive. Can you explain why not, Jr.'s, ?
