Re: Sen. Hirono asks Judge Amy Coney Barrett if she's ever sexually assaulted anyone

Posted by Olog-hai on Sat Oct 17 12:57:31 2020, in response to Re: Sen. Hirono asks Judge Amy Coney Barrett if she's ever sexually assaulted anyone, posted by FYBklyn1959 on Sat Oct 17 10:33:21 2020.

The main one is "pound of flesh". That's the collateral Shylock insisted on to lend money to Antonio—a pound of Antonio's flesh. Antonio defaults.

The rest of the play goes on about Shylock demanding the actual pound of flesh in lieu of even taking money from others to cover Antonio's debt; the end result is a court demanding that Shylock surrender half his money to the state and half to Antonio; but instead of taking that, Antonio gives his half back to Shylock on the insistence that Shylock convert to Christianity.
