I tend to have very strong opinions, unlike any other political junkie...it's crazy, I know

But seriously, I can identify numerous occasions where I thought I was advocating for a good cause... and so, I didn't think too much on what I was doing. I'm pretty sure I've bowled over numerous people in a bullying fashion... and that disturbs me quite a bit.
Especially as someone who's tried to be outspoken against bullying.

Damn you for making me get self-analytical!
