Yes, and that argument has been advanced SO many times over the years. "Well if she didn't say it they wouldn't be able to show it, ha ha!" But here she is with a cut and splice making her say something
quite different from what she did say!

Of course she should know it's edited but to suggest she shouldn't be a tad annoyed at that is really just silly.”
I am 100% sure that imrightok would not be trying to push this absurd argument if it was not about Lucy.

Why in the world would she give up her job because she has an unrelated complaint? Do you feel obliged to resign from yours every time you take a stale cake back to the cake counter?

How do you work that out?
"Lucy actually made the remark two weeks ago as a joke when the camps, Croc Creek and Snake Rock, were merged". No mention of Amy at all.

But it would appear to some, that whatever sniddy or nasty comment Lucy makes," she was only joking"”
I'm not sure there actually is a word 'sniddy'. It sounds nice and expressive though.

She hasn't denied saying what was shown,so she did say it about someone. Does it make her comment any more acceptable that she didn't say it about Amy, but said it about four or five people she didn't even know?”
Of for heavens sake. How annoying you are being. Does it make it more acceptable that she made a very small joke when the two camps joined and they cut and dropped it so it looked as if she was having a go at Amy over a week later? Yes, it does.
Here are two Bible passages for you to embroider on a sampler and put over your bed.
Quote:
“We destroyed all the people in every town we conquered – men, women, and children alike. But we kept all the livestock for ourselves and took plunder from all the towns.”
Quote:
“Jesus said unto them, go and do thou likewise.”
Shocking, eh? He sounds a proper bitch.
