I enjoy a debate. I don't really care to argue, but I sometimes get into it, with regrets. I find that comments like "go fix your own country before criticizing ours" feels like arguing to me. It is not very engaging and just shuts down my response mechanisms.
Taking the position that if there were anything wrong with America, we the people would change it, is an obviously naive viewpoint and it surprises me that Maggie takes such a discussion-ending position and then whines that she doesn't get a response out of me.
Maggie's opinions and viewpoints often make sense to me, even when I and others disagree with her, but I'm too old and tired for all day sandbox fights.
I don't mind anyone taking shots at me, justified or not. And I really appreciate it when they're right. I'll take my own shots at anyone here whenever I get the chance, in good humour. I prefer a well placed jab than a rantfest, but hey, no one has to play like me or with me.
