You're absolutely correct and the instances (2 or 3) that I have shown poor dining etiquette is when the servers, bartenders, managers and in one instance the owner didn't do jack. I'm a nice guy. I'm a very nice guy. But when such blatant ignorance and disrespect is shown for me and for others, I cannot be a turtle sitting back pondering if I should be a sheep instead. I have infinite amounts of patience, but not for people who seemingly go out of their way just because they think they are owed the right to something different from everyone else.
