Nope. They're just wrong. Not absolutely.

Nope. It's just wrong, not absolutely. Guess what?
I feel good about myself. What are you going to
do to stop me. Nothing.

You know, when you're quoting someone to make
a point, that's not the best time to mangle their name.
You've got to deal with your anger issues.

As far as the quote goes, I just said killing animals
is wrong. I didn't use the word absolute. That's
your doing. Read the actual words, not implied
nonsense.
