Hire a hitman to kill Debian? I know the Internet has everything, but where would one begin to look? In clonehappy's analogy, the wife is the distribution, not LP.

Besides, I don't know clonehappy, but I'm pretty sure clonehappy would never hire a hitman to kill Debian, LP, or anyone's wife. Strawmen have no place here. (Yeah, I know: "must be new here lol")

I made the same assumption as found in the statement "15% of all Crimeans voted".

Further, arbitrarily limiting the voting population doesn't make an election result any more legitimate.

Whether it's 21% or 30%, the result is not materially different. The overwhelming majority did not vote for the "winner", yet each individual in this overwhelming majority is forced into subordination to the winner.

17.8% of the U.S. population voted for George W. Bush in 2000 [0]. 21.0% of the U.S. population voted for Barak Obama in 2012. [1]

Seems to me not very far off from the abstract's note that "15% of all Crimeans voted" to secede. If it's legitimate in the US, why not elsewhere?

[0] Yes, Al Gore did better by winning 18.1%.

[1] Percentages calculated mainly using Wikipedia's numbers, which admittedly are not a primary source, but I'll guess are probably "close enough" to make my point:

Has the US dollar really become so weak?
