Unfortunatally, the English language is a confusing one, and I meant the latter meaning, in that the local group, not the political set of people. My bad for confusing you with complex grammar formations.

Don't insult my intelligence.

Don't insult me by saying I would insult someone else to make a point. I was mearly saying that the meaning I meant was different do the meaning you interpreted, and you were halfway across the map, not seeing the situation at the location and that English has complex grammatical forms, even to such an extent that I sometimes get confused about what people mean, even if I'm stood next to them.
