Probably not, people here in politics seem to have thicker skin than some who throw hissy fits whenever someone disagrees with their opinion, and scream 'personal attack, personal attack' anytime some disagrees with them, but meh, seems to be the usual.

And I don't understand why I need to qualify my opinion on anything other than my life experiences and that which my friends have experienced and shown me. Especially when I state it is nothing more than MY opinion. I did not qualify it as that of a scholar or expert on the subject. But my opinion and belief determines my vote far more than any article that can I am sure somewhere be rebutted by a different source just as respected.

Well, you see pan, this is a discussion forum, where sources generally come in handy to help people see what you're going on about, otherwise well we're debating your opinion, and we all know if we question that, it ends in another victim act, we've all seen the movie here before, don't question pan, he'll scream 'attack, attack', so you'll have to forgive people if they suddenly start ignoring you and your 'opinion'
