17. I challenge you to justify your description of my "world view".

The world view you depict in your screed is not my world view. I have been in this often ugly world for enough years to know exactly the hatefulness, the filthy ignorance of that world view. It is the world view of everything that any decent person despises. It is not my world view.

If you knew anything at all about me, you would never have drawn such a disgusting inference from my comment. If you were in a rational frame of mind, you would not have made such a grossly wrong inference.

Simply pit, what I said was an accurate description of my personal feelings regarding the violent double rape of a young woman (rape is violent by its very nature). It was not in any way intended to be a universal statement. It was about my feelings, my reaction to this horrible crime.

And I offer no apology for it.
