free life lesson of the day. lets use a metaphor:
Lets say u go to a Yankees game. the team is playing pretty well and fighting for a top spot in the division. a couple of the fans are saying, "man we would play so much better if Jeter (lets pretend he's hurt) were playing. seems like that combined with the umps giving us the shaft the last couple games is killing us." They obviously seem passionate about their team, and really enjoy watching them.
Then, all the sudden u turn around and say, "Well in my opinion, the Yankess aren't that good when compared to the Red Sox. pPdroya's a better player, and boston has a nicer stadium. and u guys shouldnt try to put losing the games on a couple bad calls or a couple tools you are missing on the infield. When in reality, your team sucks all around."
Yankees fans then proceed to beat the life out of you and everyone in the stadium cheers. later, when a news team comes to interview you in your hospital bed and the reporter says, "now why did everyone beat u up?"
You look up, tear rolling down your cheek, and simply go, "gee idk... i was just tellin the truth..."
see what i'm saying... you cant just come in the lions den, talk smack, and expect people not to defend something they are passionate about.
Moral of the story: a lil common sense goes a long ways
