Are you saying I'd go back and change my post if it hadn't been quoted? I've never done this so stop attempting to slander me.

Most reasonably intelligent people would be able to see that it was tongue in cheek. Next time I'll put it in big bright neon green letters just for you! Is that good enough for you?

I think that's more a reflection of your intelligence than anything to do with me.

You're right about stoning, but you're wrong about prison. If convicted of a criminal offense, a defendant almost always does time, and may additionally be fined. The time may be served in something as minor as house-arrest or community service, all the way up to maximum security, but in some way, shape, or form, they lose their freedom until the sentence is satisfied.

For summary conviction offences that fall under the jurisdiction of the federal government (which includes all criminal law), section 787 of the Criminal Code of Canada specifies that, unless another punishment is provided for by law, the maximum penalty for a summary conviction offence is a sentence of 6 months of imprisonment, a fine of $5000 or both.

Once again you are wrong. Keep in mind that first time offenders rarely get the maximum.

I'd make a remark about common sense and your teeth, but that would be unbecoming of me, so instead I'll use the more appropriate internet vernacular and simply state:

And to that, good sir, I say "Thank the powers that be that we will never have to stand before you in a tribunal that matters."

Is there a point to this or are you just throwing random gibberish on the wall in the hope that some of it will stick and fool people into believing you're smart?
