...so why are you so against it?
I've seen this argument been used time and time again by people all over... and I'm curious if any of you are as annoyed by it as I am.
Should I only care about what affects me, personally, directly, in the immediate future? Should I lose all empathy for others, because, by god, I'm not in their situation, so what am I whining about?
Is it only right to debate against something if you yourself are being attacked? Or should you stand up for other's rights just as much as you should for your own?
