    It’s not unicorn hunting season; it’s disillusioning dad hunting season. He probably already came up with the rationale for killing the Easter Bunny.

    Actually, the Dad is correct. Why let the unicorn suffer?

    There was green alligators and long-necked geese, Some humpty backed camels and some chimpanzees. Noah cried, “Close the door because it’s starting to storm, And we just can’t wait for those unicorns!”

    The screenplay for the movie “They Shoot Unicorns Don’t They?” was based on this short story.

    I take issue with that, jtpozenel. Why are we so concerned with existence? Is this some sort of a corruption of logic by the hallucinations of mad metaphysicists, ranting gibberish about being and nothingness and nonbeingness? What do we mean by existence: empirically provable, or just assumed to exist for the sake and context of the discussion?

    I propose that “existential import” in Lojban mean the latter; that claims by default refer to whatever hypothetical universe the discourse is taking place in – full of Unicorns and Sherlocks as easily as they might be forbidden. And that we reserve da’i and da’inai to import the results of the discussion to the empirical universe, or inhibit the same.

    Specifically, I propose that {da} mean {da da’icu’i}, not {da da’inai} as we seem to have been torturing ourselves over.

    Now do you see?
