In defense of Mrs. White Republican

I feel I ought to speak up for my nemesis of the previous post. While I don't know her all that well (she sits in the front row, so...) from what I've observed she seems to be a courteous, well-spoken and pretty nice lady. I don't think she was actively trying to be oppressive or mean. I truly don't. I think she was expressing her opinion and for whatever reason could not bring herself to back down from it. In all honesty I think I'd like her, given the opportunity. And the experience gave me a little insight into my own opinions. I believe that oppression comes predominantly from ignorance rather than malice.
