@espinsegall we are playing with words. Everyone knows the difference between ignorance and hatred. Neither is good. Not the sane thing. -
@Profepps@espinsegall basing it on religion is also not good for law, but I wouldn't consider it malice. Although some might have malice. -
@kkaplan@espinsegall religious grounds aren't ok. Establishment. Simmons J doesn't use them. -
@Profepps@espinsegall sure, I'm just saying it's an example of grounds that aren't founded, but not malice. -
@kkaplan@espinsegall roger that
