I'd be more touched if, y'know, I had actually defended anybody. Which I didn't. I never took a stand on his conviction, I never said that he should've killed and gotten away with it, all I said was that, according to the CNN article, the reasons behind his sentencing were ridiculously absurd. Any one of us could face a wrongful conviction and bad sentencing if "well, he didn't look emotional enough" were considered, and yes this means me.

Edit: I'll post a calmer reply when I'm... um... calm. Right now I gotta study. Djusk' a.

No, you hush. This is obviously a sensitive issue for her, I wasn't expecting that. People do tend to react strongly with personal issues. And... stuff... yeah. *groans*

OK, maybe the problem is *just* the defensive. I mean, you clearly said "x" and she screamed "omg I can't believe you said 'y'" and you said "but I . . ." and she screamed again and other people said "but she . . ." and she screamed some more.

Sensitive issues or problems aside, the communication breakdown *still* wasn't on your part.

Yeah, probably, but being upset does tend to blind one to... um... stuff.
