I’m sorry, but I’m having a little trouble seeing how that quote constitutes “picking on” Ambivalid.

Here is the full quote:

That, by you, is “picking on?”

I’m sorry, but I am still confused. You are quoting his comments about “progressive tax rates,” and I asked about your accusation that he inveighed against the capital gains tax.

Those are different subjects, as you are undoubtedly aware.

So again I ask: where is this attack from D’A against capital gains tax? And in what way does his denial of wheelchair users’ per se need for 24x7 care constitute “picking on?”
