I find that sad. Kids are stupid, the are just repeating talking points from one side or another. The more visceral they get, the more they will be attacked. It is like kids arguing religion. Taking the joy out of being young.

I wouldn't be proud or ashamed. If it were my kid, I'd have a talk with her about it. And while that's not the way I would have ever reacted to a stupid question, I'd want to know where she was coming from and why she thought that was appropriate, whether it was a gut reaction, and whether she could learn from it.

But if it were my kid, I'd be even more upset that this was became an issue for public discussion.

Kids should be able to make mistakes, drop an f bomb, flip people off, etc., without their conduct being analyzed by strangers.

Don't see much of a difference between calling the reporter a weido and dropping an f-bomb. Both are dismissive, and both can be an appropriate response.

What objections should she articulate to an Infowars reporter?

If someone cuts you off while you are driving, do you politely pull up along side the car, roll down the window, and articulate your objections?

Maybe we should give the kid a break.

Fixed it for you.
