I don't know why anoyone would even go into those threads for a discussion on GC. You are not going to change anyone's mind, and they probably aren't going to change yours.
When I am not sure of how I feel about a topic and I want to discuss it IRL I read up on it and look for info from BOTH sides of the aisle. 99.9% of the "dialogues" I see here are with people who never bother to seek out that kind of information, yet still feel compelled to comment. Boring.
There are some things that some folks have no desire to understand, and I am definitely in that group. I have no desire to understand how difficult it is to be a poor persecuted affluent southern white male, so I just don't talk to some folks and let it go.
