>The bill DOES NOT specify freshmen only.

I never said it did, You were the one that specified Freshmen-only:

"...have an influx of about 9000 freshmen..."

>I realize 10-20 miles in the Shreveport/Bossier area is insignificant...

I never said anything about 10-20 miles, I said the Natchitoches MSA which is more like what most people consider to be "Natchitoches" when discussing people that live there. I also gave numbers for the strict city limits.

>I'm not way out of line with reality,

You said over 4,500 Freshman girls come to Natchitoches each year. the actual number is much smaller than this so I was correcting your way-off estimate. You then tried to justify your estimate by claiming that the numbers were higher when you were there. I again gave you the correct numbers that showed this was not the case.

Someone that consistently misunderstands and misinterprets clear contradictory evidence shouldn't throw the word "retarded" around so freely.

>justify your pitiful argument by consistently excluding students from 2 colleges and 3 high schools

"My pitiful argument" consists of the actual, correct population numbers, they don't need justification to any reasonable person. I excluded nothing. The numbers I gave included the Scholars College (total enrollment 108). The numbers in the first post didn't include grad students because you had specified incoming Freshmen.

My entire point was that "a city with about 15-16,000 people and have an influx of about 9000 freshmen, over half of which are totally legal females on their own for the first time and ready to party!AND it happens EVERY fall!" is not an accurate description of Natchitoches. I then provided evidence to support this. Then you rambled, changed the subject, and flung ad hominem arguments to deflect the fact that you are unable of admitting when you're wrong, just like when you couldn't read and comprehend LA's castle doctrine statute.
