Word of warning, @beschizza: someone is bound to try revoking your citizenship if you keep spelling “ass” that way.

We really need some antidiscrimination laws, don’t we? Also, advocating for gun control is a hate crime.

Not that I doubt you. I am almost certain that someone did exactly that in the US. If I searched, I would probably find a whole bunch, and wonder which particular one you meant. It’s more for the looks of the thing, you understand?
