I understand. I guess I haven't been around too many posts that have such an academic feel to them on livejournal. If you look at it in that light, you're post is brilliantly written. One thing I do like is it tends to bring out ideas on WHY it happens instead of the flame war of how stupid x groups is for doing y.
Another reason I was caught up in emotion versus pure concept is the writer in the article does everything he can (from slander to jest) to show the individuals behind the statistics. Your post brings it back to a statistic and makes us wonder where the littler girl went. I guess you do need both sides to stay well informed though.
