In Reply to: Question: How then *may* one discuss the destruction of a film archive without identifying the perps? posted by clarkjohnsen on March 23, 2007 at 09:46:30:
If you really want to discuss the film, you are free to do so if you leave out the speculation about what a certain group might/would do next; talk about the film, not what might/would happen in, say, France for example. Please don't bother arguing with this position.Fax mentis incendium gloria cultum, et cetera, et cetera...

Yes, that was clear ... we chose to call the documentary 'the film.'> > but it wasn't "the film" but a whole archive
Yes, we understood that. See above.> > ...which was pretty explicit as to who was doing the damage.
If it was, you are free to say who did the damage. It is not okay to project what those who did the damage might do to another country in the future. That's not the purpose of this board and that was the problem with your approach.
