My thoughts exactly. The Left doesn't want debate; it wants conquest. Since at least the days of Cindy Sheehan (remember her?), the Left has tried to find individuals who have suffered losses. These individuals are vested with absolute moral authority on the matter at hand. This means that they may not be questioned, criticized, or challenged in any way. We must simply listen to them and obey their decrees. Our sympathy is to be transformed into mindless obedience.
Sorry, leftists. That's not how it works in a free society such as ours. The students in Florida have a right to speak their minds, obviously, but the rest of us have a right (indeed, a duty) to disagree with them, to find fault with their reasoning, to dispute their factual assertions, and to show that they are being funded, instructed, and otherwise propped up by agitators. There are no moral authorities in our society, and there are certainly no absolute moral authorities.
