You obviously mean something different by "GET TO " than I do, because what you say points nothing out to me.
I would have understood exactly what you meant if you had asked "How did Holly Wood get to be executed last September ? ", and I certainly would not have thought you meant that he chose to be executed or anything like that.
Sorry if my answer was not precise enough for your pernickety interpretation of the English language.
Then likewise, please accept my apologies for misinterpreting your response.
I must say I would not have thought a different colour prison uniform, or the ability to chose a colour was going to be understood to be a privilege, though I am looking it from a man's point of view, and I guess choice of colour is a bit more important to a woman than to (me at least as) a man.
No, no, of course not. I just thought it sort of funny the way the question was posed and the way that part of the answer panned out. "Get to" sounds like it's a privilege, but it turned out to be the most severe punishment of them all. I'm sorry if I seemed pernickety.
I'd like to point two things out: "...GET TO wear orange..." "Florida death row prisoners: Orange..."
orange is a catchy color just in case they escape? Some are strips too.
