You failed to answer any of those points. Miserably.

Just above you said my post was "an excellent example of the logical fallacy of the Ad Hominem Tu Quoque." And now you're saying "It may not be a Tu Quoque"?? WTF? After accusing ME of not being familiar with logic?

Forgive me if I file you away under "Doesn't Have a Clue what the Fuck They're Talking About and Should Never be Taken Seriously Again"
