Being gracious is to be considerate and understanding. Slapping a fine of $500 for someone having a sweet to sooth her throat is going the complete opposite direction. It is a show of arrogance and encouragement of intolerance. You might as well suggest just chop her head off on the spot!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21070055.post-47728922204675788042009-07-18T16:15:03.774+08:002009-07-18T16:15:03.774+08:00I suppose the conditions surrounding an offense re...I suppose the conditions surrounding an offense require consideration - http://ow.ly/hzUDAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21070055.post-76553710786041491622009-07-17T20:32:40.348+08:002009-07-17T20:32:40.348+08:00Hi!

An alternative method is to 'advertise' their acts (photographs) in various blogs and newspapers and cause them to 'loose face'.<br /><br />Cheers!Zeushttp://www.genlifeblog.comnoreply@blogger.com
