[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]So here you are at a meeting. Lots and lots and lots of people want to speak, so there's a two-minute time limit so that everybody gets a chance. Some guy gets up and starts talking. He gets his two minutes. The person running the meeting says that the two minutes are up. The guy won't stop talking. The person running the meeting tells him to stop talking. The guy won't stop talking. The person running the meeting tells him he needs to stop talking now. The guy says that he refuses to stop talking, and the only way they can make him stop talking is to arrest him. So they...what? Let him keep talking? Because he pays taxes? So does everybody else in the room who wants to talk, and can't because the guy won't stop talking.

How about calling a recess to the meeting?  Don't you think that would have worked?  Oh, wait, that would have taken a little common sense.  [/quote]

How many meetings like this have you been to? I don't think you've been to many (or possibly any).

Lots of other people also wanted to have their say. This guy was preventing them from doing so.[/quote]
