I think you're being downvoted because you're assuming PG has only read one side. Perhaps he already read the court papers making its way around the internet or possibly other sources? As far as I could tell he never said what source(s) he read, etc.
- monochromatic 11y agoFair enough, he never said what exactly he'd read. But if you're trying to write a persuasive piece, you address the other side's arguments/positions. It's just polemic otherwise.
- elektromekatron 11y agoI think you are underestimating polemic.

It's a great place to blast opinions and occasionally be heard but it's awful for debate or persuasion so most don't try and when you do try...it's just painful.
