No it isn't. I addressed the part of your quote that I wanted to address. That you don't agree with my opinion doesn't have fuck all to do with quoting someone out of context. Again, if you think I broke a rule, report my ass.
I'm not saying that you are quoting me out of context, but that leaving information out intentionally from the story is similar.  It's a mis-characterization.  And has nothing to do with our disagreement.

The sample size would be the number of time a request was made, regardless of who made it, and the refusals that went along with it. It's been mentioned that the lawyer has made numerous requests for other types of cakes only to be continuously shot down. Every time.

Quote: How much data are you basing this on?

See above.
Again, how much data are you basing this on?   And are you including all the information?

Quote: It would seem that to avoid cherry picking, that you need to include that he offered to sell them something else (in the first case);as well as the other jobs that he has turned down.  

You don't get to set the perimeters for my opinions.

Ok... but your opinion doesn't seemed to be based on the truth of the matter.

Quote:If you have another reasonable option for why people mischaracterize the situation, I’m happy to hear it.

I like how you totally ignored being called out for what you said. Dodge much? You can still Fuck off.

It wasn't important to the discussion. (I thought it was a diversion to make this about me actually)   We can call it a cognitive impairment if you like.   I wasn't using it in a derogatory sense, but as a difficulty in understanding and being able to accurately describe the situation.  Even when pointed out, people are continually leaving out a part of the story.  And it was one of the options.

edit:  We can remove that option if you like.   However, with the number of times the ignorance position has been corrected and countered, I don't really think that is an option anymore.  Again, if you would like to add another option, feel free.

Yes, I'm only familiar with what is in the news, perhaps the other poster has more information.   But to make a conclusion based on limited information and apart from everything else would be wrong.
