(19,926 posts)doesn't mean everyone else has to discount the rest of the post and only respond with condolences.
It's a very sad thing to have happened, but to then use it as a reason to attack others when they don't make any mention of it/continue to disagree is disingenuous. A lot of people have had losses in their lives and most likely they don't attempt to use it to nullify someone else's argument.
I'm sure you're going to say something about me being callous, but stating something like that and then using it in every post thereafter as a way to demonize the person you're arguing with is a less than honorable method of having a debate, and in fact, as we have seen here, can be used to derail the debate by making it all about whether or not the "opponent" has shown sufficient sympathy, when that's not what the discussion was about.
And I notice that.
