177. Nice try. You're flailing-- that's a bad sign for your arguments.
Here is the guy's entire unedited sentence:

"I have two sons of my own and I don't take them out into public because, hell, they can be children and although, I , as the parent, think their crap smells cute, it isn't that way to the rest of the world."


Now, to me, if someone says "I don't take my kids out into public", I naturally assume that what they mean is, they don't take their kids out into public.

See, I don't have to do any creative bullshit editing on that sentence to make it mean something that it clearly doesn't- something that sounds pretty bad. It does just fine on its own.

:eyes:, yourself.
