Why are many people in the politics and education sections so gutless that they deny comments, either generally or for specific people?

Is it because these folks fear having to see a different point of view, such difference forcing them to confront their beliefs?

    I see my beliefs questioned here every day and have actually altered or changed a few of them as a result.

    I am NOT ''fixed in place'' and am more than will to compromise when the argument is valid and the evidence verifiable.

    But DO NOT expect to rant at me incoherently and expect me to respect you or change my mind. That will not happen.

    I did you the courtesy of looking at your questions, and based on those I suspect you may have a problem with courtesy yourself. Calling people names will alienate them you know. It isn't that they are gutless; they may simply object to having their intelligence or integrity challenged simply for disagreeing with you.

    That being said, this liberal often gives in to the temptation of pointing out the hypocrisy of some trolls on this site. I would suggest that if you as a conservative want to insult liberals you get used to them insulting you back. That's the quid pro quo on Yahoo!
