	+ ------ + ''2012-09-21 12:57:19'' [[nbsp]] The word "alleged" can be used with or without quotes, but the meanings do vary. I do not believe that quotations are required because "this is America" (I am quoting you), but because one means that others use the word "alleged", and the speaker is quoting those others; meaning the speaker would not choose to use that word. --["Users/martingugino"]

	+ ------ + ''2011-05-30 23:13:41'' [[nbsp]] I'm not really sure why certain words/phrases are in quotes, like "alleged" and "battery cages." This documentary is really engaging and I recommend it. It's horrible that instead of changing the ways the hens were treated, Wegmans just averted the blame by selling it to a "family farm" (that is an appropriate use of quotation marks). Local doesn't always mean right! --["Users/Sionainn"]
