In my previous post, I quoted Blue Crab Boulevard as follows:
- . . . reports like this from issue groups like the SPLC probably have a great deal more to do with the group’s fund raising efforts than with reality these days. And hyperventilating reports from the New York Times have a way of being quietly refuted later.
Blogger Gaius informs me that, by not including the sentence preceeding this quote, I misrepresented his position. I agree. Here’s how the quote should read:
- If there are members of the military who are also members of “hate groups”, they should be discharged. But reports like this from issue groups like the SPLC probably have a great deal more to do with the group’s fund raising efforts than with reality these days. And hyperventilating reports from the New York Times have a way of being quietly refuted later.
This was my mistake and I take full responsibility for it.
Thank you, I appreciate the correction very much. Your quick response is an even better indication that you did not do it intentionally, I think.
[...] UPDATE: Marc from American Future quoted a part of a paragraph in this post and, I thought, changed the entire meaning by leaving a sentence out. I said so in the comment section and was issued a full, public, and I think very sincere apology. I genuinely appreciate that, Marc. [...]
