I didn't recognize the reference.  I did get the point, and
it was hilarious.  It has become even more so because of this
silly debate on that one reference.

The argument about education, history, national vs. international
etc. is all a smoke screen.

The point had to do with your basic understanding of *justice*.
If you missed it, you were 1) asleep (acceptable) or 2) need
a better understanding of what justice is or is not.

(Ok, you could be so straight laced that satire misses you.)

IMHO.
