Perfection
The Great Head.
One not need to have done something illegal to fear legal repercussion. For instance a refugee may fear deportation despite having a legal reason for being here.In the paragraph above you're talking about how non-criminal charges, now you're admitting something illegal is going on after all, or at least the fear of repercussions due to something illegal being done is the only demonstrable fear.
You seem to be changing your story here, it seems now you have stopped arguing that it the proposed rule change would not affect results and instead are arguing that those who might be affected somehow deserve to not be counted? Those are two quite different arguments, please clarify your stance.I see zero reason to respect that fear, or differentiate it from fear of other illegal activity influencing census participation.
I fail to see how any of my positions advocate against an accurate count. I am committed to an accurate count and I believe all my positions are consistent with that belief.If an accurate count for voting representation is important to you, why are you advocating against an accurate count for voting representation? This is sort of like allowing the pacemaker to make errors at a 10% margin because you don't have perfect assurance to avoid a separate 0.1% error margin.
