Why should he bother? When you refuse to read it yourself, and given history, there's a huge likelyhood that you're just going to dismiss his summary.
Also - it's *really* unlikely you read all three of those reports for comprehension in the 38 minutes between the time Thump posted his sources and your response.
So again, why should he bother?
ETA: Also, considering the last report is 124 pages I doubt you read it at all.

You're splitting hairs, and you're wrong to boot.
One definition of oppression is the "the state of being subject to unjust treatment or control". Another is "prolonged cruel or unjust treatment or control."
Discrimination is unjust.
