32. Agree. But that doesn't mean others can't offer opinions

We're still being told to STFU because we're not in Maine. I've seen dozens of OP over the years here rightfully complaining about my despicable governor DeathSentence. And my despicable senator Voldemort. I don't recall anyone ever saying people didn't have a right to voice an opinion because they're not in Florida.

Do you?
