She compared murder to making fun of someone. And then, when people questioned her statements, she chickened out and left. How exactly do you figure that running away constitutes "defending your argument well"?
Also, I feel that analogies are a <b>terrible</b> way of trying win a logical argument. You can make up some story about anything. It never proves anything, and it rarely convinces anyone. How about just arguing the facts?
