I'm not sure how you're hurt; were you bullied in school?  Aren't you arguing for plain speaking?  I don't write negative posts, but I never approve personal attacks and/or name-calling.  Can't you just post your opinion, w/o making snide remarks?  And then  YOUR feelings are hurt? If you were a liberal, right about now someone would be calling you 'snowflake', but I won't do that.
