“Pardon?” 2
Jon Swift tautly, irrefutablely argues as to why the Walmart Tramplers should be pardonned. Read the whole thing, as he expands his reasoning to even wider perspectives. Here’s an excerpt:
Via Andrew Sullivan.
This website does not track you.
It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.
Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.
I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.
Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.

I hate to disagree with both you, Sullivan, & Swift, but that was caused by simple greed on the part of both Wally World & the animals that were waiting to get in the door.
If possible, they should all be brought up on charges, but I’m intelligent enough to know that lousy tape & defense lawyers will prevent that.
Simply another reason I won’t darken a Wally World door.
