One of the hallmarks of freedom is that when you recognize someone is being intellectually dishonest or arguing with you in bad faith, you have the option to walk away without being punished, imprisoned or tortured.

Did you hear about the guy in Florida who left his two month old baby locked in the car while he shopped at Best Buy?

WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE. Sorry for yelling.

My business has a "black friday" sale too, just because it's expected these days, and a bunch of sales go through. It's an online marketplace though, so no one gets stomped to death. Still, I feel queasy at participating in the annual event because of what else goes on. I feel like I'm legitimizing and condoning it somehow.

leaving your infant in the car! I can't even think about it. I used to insist that either my brother or I stay in the car with our dog. I wouldn't even leave the dog in the car alone, and never in the summer! wouldn't even leave my brother in the care in the summer and he's my age.
