Re: Tyler Clementi...I spent the better part of the morning (uselessly) arguing with someone who basically told me on FB that he should have "fought back". With what, I asked. Because I mean, really...when you're that depressed and you feel like you have no allies, how exactly are you supposed to fight against something like that? This person then proceeded to tell me how they raised their kids to fight back, implicitly physically. Apparently I am a Bad Person for (a) not advocating this behavior as solution-oriented and (b) for choosing not to have children. Also, apparently (b) meant that I was not entitled to have an opinion about her opinion since I haven't raised a child myself.

Uhm. My head is spinning.
