I appreciate the compliment, but I assure you that I did not invent deductive reasoning.
Please restrain yourself from lecturing me or anyone else about facts in the future.
You said that the facts of the matter were sophistry, that the only thing that matters are abstract theories about individual rights.
Neither of us have an exhaustive picture of the facts - my point is that the facts actually matter.
Using the facts we actually do have at our disposal, I think my analysis is more plausible than your assumptions.
What assumptions on my part? I have made none. I read the same story you did and accept it verbatim. The difference is that you have invented a detail to strengthen your “analysis”.
