To be fair, you normally talk quite a lot of sense, but in this case you've really lost it I'm afraid. I was just trying to find out if the "You break the law, you can't moan about being punished, and NO EXCEPTIONS" brigade thought it was OK to prosecute those who went to the right of the sign. No more, no less. Now why not take the post at face value?

If you keep reading things into people's posts which aren't there, you'll get a reputation for being paranoid, dear fellow.
