Well, you stated badly who you were interested in hearing from. Having claimed that a majority agree with you (unsupported, given how defectively the poll question was worded), you said wanted to hear from "other people", which I took to mean people on the other side of the issue rather than "other people who agree with Aliantha"...which seems kinda pointless. Disappointingly, it turns out that you're interested in the opinions of those who agree with you, so you can stroke each other's outrage and moral superiority, I suppose.

I understand your "case" just fine: you're willing to sacrifice an important legal principle for your pet "identity politics" victim issue. As for remedial classes, I'd suggest you read Orwell's 1984 again. (Assuming you read it once...it *used* to be required reading in high school.)
