I can agree that Affirmative Action and taxes and "entitlements" are debatable and that I often loose my cool and abuse people with whom I disagree. This is wrong and stupid of me, so I really do agree with most of your points. But should I respect those who favor the legal killing of black people? How about Jews? To me the "pro-choice" person does not respect the lives of others, the unborn, and I can not respect their position, which is essentially that one human's rights trump the rights of another. Life can be made worse by making a friend. I avoid the criminal, for obvious reasons, but I also avoid "Leftists" because we are in almost complete opposition. I have ended "friendships" with people who call our soldiers murderers or idiots or worse. My life is better without these negative influences. I will not be friends with Nazis or Islamists, either, for similar reasons. Barry Goldwater said "Extremism in the defense of freedom is no vice; moderation in the pursuit of liberty is no virtue." and I could not agree more, respectfully, of course.

I must admit that sometimes I get carried away when trying to make my point, but I do try to do it respectfully. Sometimes I fail and sometimes I don't. My position is that I keep trying and sooner or later, I will succeed. * Applause* This is an excellent article.
