You stopped this from being a friendly conversation from the jump. Downvoting instantly when you could have simply argued a point ("parallel construction") and then understood where I'm coming from (we can't become so apathetic to their garbage that they actually legalize it) was pretty lame.

Apologies if I am overreacting, I probably am. My patience is thin as I am having my first kidney stone and it is a truly awful experience.
