Maybe you approach your life that way, but it's not the right way.
That rough behavior merely points out the sad truth there are people who are more or less human sized, and human-looking, more or less, who walk among us who don't respect the human race, and will behave like wild animals when their brutal behavior is condemned. They immediately try to eliminate anyone who disaggrees with them.
They show uso there are monsters in our midsts, unfortunately. Their sympathizers swarm to protect their "rights" to snuff out dissent.
That's much further from "rational conversation" than one wee woman with a sign.
