113. What is wrong with using a rhetorical question as a header? |
|
Particularly when it highlights a problem that merits attention. You seem to have approached this thread with an overly emotional reaction rather than recognizing it for what it is.
Should blacks have as much right to vote as whites? The obvious answer is yes, the not so obvious answer is then what the heck are we doing about the disparities if we acknowledge the obvious answer? I see nothing hurtful or divisive here. Would you have been offended if the OP had said "Should poor people have as much right to vote as rich?" Resulting dialogue is pretty much the same.
