I guess when you can't tell somebody that they are wrong, you can still complain about how they are saying it.....

It was a response to the original comment of - I'm not going to call him a liar, because that presumes malice. He was wrong and irresponsible in his defaming statement. - which I still think merits sarcasm.

I could have done better however, so in that spirit, here's First Dog on the Moon's take on the event - http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/picture/2015/sep/18...

I believe the parent was calling you out on your BS. You claimed to care about the truth, but actually misunderstood and mischaracterized me. Then when the ignorance of your original statement became obvious, rather than acknowledge your gaffe, you immaturely deflected with glib sarcasm.

Not surprisingly, consistent with your weak intellectual arguments and preceding dishonesty, your comic forwards bigotry and ignorance while ignoring every meaningfully accurate portrayal of the truth.

You're a mouthpiece for hatred and ignorance.
