Very good, @ericvancewalton:

"Anyone who is a student of history ..."

I wholeheartedly agree. Unfortunately, the word 'student' raises another sad topic, given how seemingly poorly educated so many people are about so much ...

Thank you for writing this post. And at least supporting our freedom of expression to discuss this issue. The people who you reference in it have no discernible intention of entering into an open, honest conversation. Rather they are focused on shutting it down. Using intimidation, force, i.e. whatever it takes to prevail.

We'll see what consequences follow these actions. Life lessons are (or at least should be) clear enough. If they are no consequences to this type of behavior, then it will likely get worse.
