You just described how many people respond in Seattle when you have a dissenting opinion on ANYTHING. It is maddening and has pushed me more socially conservative. I'm not kidding when I say I've been looking as this week's election (i.e. reelecting a socialist who doesn't govern her district and/or voting affirmative action back in) as a strong signal whether we stay or go. We do polling by mail, so I won't know for another week.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
