Sure it can. Every single status-quo supporter in history has told
protestors the same thing: If you want to ride on the front of the bus,
petition the county, but don't do boycotts and civil disobediance.

Yes, if we all wanted to have a polite discussion amongst ourselves,
reaching nobody but those wanting to discuss cars, Obama, Ebola, and the
Mideast, we certainly could go on the offtopic list. But we want to:

A) Reach real people involved in the situation
B) Build a community

Frankly, telling us we can do it on the offtopic list is an insult to
our intelligence. You know it, and we know it.
