What's happening to you America?

[Shell B]

That was not a no true Scotsman. At what point did I say no American would do that? Did I at any point suggest that the judge was not a "true" American? Firstly, it was widely meant as a joke, though clearly meant as a dig at Utah's standards. Furthermore, you can equate Utah and Texas to America all you want, but you are seriously kidding yourself if you think the backward south and midwest are anything like the rest of the United States. Also, it is literally not "America."

On a side note, I find it funny that people take themselves so seriously that they think they can understand the entirety of this nation based on what one judge does in one state without bothering to remember that state laws govern such shit. If you read the article, you would see that the law allowed the judge to behave as he did. He behaved in a way that a judge could not in my state. In short, think in scope, not in platitudes, if you please. That is not directed specifically at you, pad. There just seems to be this ridiculous notion that a nation more than 3,000 miles wide and containing a total of 50 state governments is all the same.

Shit, I am so fucking far from Texas that it might as well be in another country.
