That’s not how you felt back when we had this exchange.

Your response to that illustration of your lie was, in total:

> [@Here's your "all white jury", race hustlers](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/heres-your-all-white-jury-race-hustlers/664621/196):
>
> I’ve been savagely mauled by a chihuahua!

I pointed out that you were dodging giving explanations about your lie, and here’s how the conversation unfolded:

> [@Here's your "all white jury", race hustlers](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/heres-your-all-white-jury-race-hustlers/664621/197):
>
> That’s not an answer. It’s your usual trick of spewing bullshit prose that means nothing.

> Do you have an actual, plain, clear, answer?

> [@Here's your "all white jury", race hustlers](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/heres-your-all-white-jury-race-hustlers/664621/198):

> Sure! You don’t deserve one. Plain enough for your sorry ass?
