Is it just me, or are people just getting off on putting words in other people's mouths? I don't see how describing one group's qualities immediately implies a monopoly on these qualities, or that a general question challenging these qualities counts as a blanket indictment of all individuals within that group. I thought this group's members were a little more capable of parsing content than this thread has displayed. Honestly, it reeks of intellectual laziness, or maybe just plain laziness.
