[QUOTE="henschman, post: 2698146, member: 4235"] It depends on the topic and the crowd. I usually try to pick my battles wisely in order to sway as many people's thoughts toward my views as possible. If the crowd is sensitive, sometimes it is best to just cut the horns off the sacred cow, and not slaughter the whole thing. Then again those cows are mighty tempting... sometimes I can't help it and I really go to town with that butcher's knife, and sit myself down for a big ribeye with a side of calf fry, serenaded by the sweet sound of boo-hooing from all the sensitive souls. Is it completely rational? No... but some people have such a predictable and emotional reaction to certain things that it is hard to resist prodding them. [/QUOTE]
