Genie, it is the style and the verbal tactics of that article you originally linked to in this thread that I don't care for. I have no objection to the basic point of the article. I agree with that point. But I don't like the way the point is put across through really gross stereotyping of the people on the other side of the political divide. I make no judgement on what you would hypothetically do in regards to that situation nor do I chastise you for it. My issue is with the style and attitude of the article.

If gross prejudice is wrong when practiced against "liberals", it is also wrong when practiced against "conservatives" (I use those 2 damned words because they have become standard symbols in the common vernacular...but symbols which are mostly used now to mislead and pigeon-hole people and beat them over the head with rather than to enlighten them.)
