If you are posting to win friends and influence people, then you are not my friend. I want the facts, blunt and honest. That means being politically incorrect. Those who are politically correct lie too much. If you have an emotional opinion of what I have posted, then, as far as I am concerned, you have not yet learned to be an adult. Your opinion should only be on the facts as posted. Emotion has no place in adult thinking.
Truth must be posted bluntly no matter how much it hurts.
Same applies to those who want to save me from seeing something painful or atrocious. Don't insult me. If they are cutting off his head, then show me ... in detail. Then I can assertain the credibility of the event, appreciate the real intent of the killers, AND identify other unique information not observed by others. Again, stop with thinking nice is good. Nice is bad. Honest and blunt is good.
In the meantime, it is an honest opinion but not backed up by supporting reasoning. You don't think there is anything gained by first starting with the reason for that Las Vegas violence? Fine. You don't like it. Why? Why does that unjustified violence by a minority of Las Vegas extremists not belong in this discussion first and foremost? Not your feelings. Facts. Why should we ignore the fundamental reasons for the disruption of a show at the expense of other Linda Rhonstadt fans?
