Hear hear, berkolate. If only reason and facts were accepted as valid arbiters by the other side in this argument...

There's simply no convincing some people that I, my wife, and our child are not "symptoms of the decay of society", or some such nonsense, no matter how good and nice we are. They have fixated on a period of time that didn't really exist. They are going to find someone to blame for its "disappearance", and damn the consequences.
