I personally disagreed slightly because I felt that "bad people" brush was applied a bit too strongly. I don't think these people are as hateful as Contrapoints or you seem to think. But I can understand, particularly from how an emotional point of view one might feel that way. I also disagreed with the idea that calmness with them was effectively a lost cause. I think calm rational discussion is almost always going to be the best approach. But hopefully it goes without saying that just because I have a different opinion doesn't mean I don't recognize the opinion being discussed as valid. --- "joe is attractive and quite the brilliant poster" - Seiichi Omori http://i.imgur.com/TheGsZ9.gif ...
