Agreed. I have no problem with people opining and even ranting, but you should expect other people who might do the same about you and your opinions.

You all know I rant. But, I'm perfectly comfortable being criticized back. Sometimes I even back right up and agree with the criticism if it seems convincing. I only have a problem when someone genuinely means to tell someone else to shut up. I mean--they're not being tongue-in-cheek or ribbing each other but genuinely trying to quell opposing opinion. That bothers me. Otherwise, I'm good with people complaining.
