I'm torn on this one, as I can see both sides of the argument. It does make our side look foolish and part of their (wrong, BTW) stereotypes. OTOH, their side started it, and sowed the wind. They need to reap the whirlwind.
Incidentially, IMO, every day that goes by is another day closer to the reaping happening.
And, BFDU, Snugs is correct, too. You are better than they are.
