Its “group think” when people disagree with you, is that how it goes in your world?

Disagreement is good, mn. It's the ad hominem attacks we need less of and more focus on specific statements. People have opinions and shout out what they know rather than address the point of disagreement. I'm not accusing you of that, by the way. Any time a thread begins, there are shout outs. Now, I admit my first statement was tongue in cheek and I thought I've explained that upstream in post #42. But from there on, I got to be thinking about how terrible families suffer from domestic violence, particularly after the perp is arrested (i.e. financially). So I start advocating for an investigation of the financial cost to the families and all of a sudden I'm shouted down big time. What's not to wonder about that?
