Ok, let's try to simplify this. You claim that "most" of those
1,410,000 victims of violent crime are not "loved-ones".
I made no such claim.
Carl:
Well now that's interesting, in a paradoxical sort of way. On the one
hand you seemed to be very adamant that the victims in these statistics
were NOT loved ones. But now when I use the term "claim" in reference
to your supposed reluctance to consider the victims as loved ones, you
say you made no such claim.
Either produce the quote where I made claim or learn how to write
something without trying to stuff words into my mouth.
Carl:
Here is what you said:
================================================
Having a "'loved one' assaulted by a unethical criminal, intent on
taking stuff and doing bodily harm" does not happen hundreds of
thousands of times a year.
================================================
So is it the term 'loved one' you object to?
Or is it the "hundreds of thousands of times a year" you object to?
Or is it "assaulted by an unethical criminal, intent on
taking stuff and doing bodily harm" you object to?
Or which combination of the above?
