1) Privacy in public is not an entitlement
2) Interaction is an unavoidable cost of leaving our privacy at home when we close our doors behind us. Love it or hate it.
3) More tolerance FROM EVERYONE over our respective social differences would be nice.
4) Have a lovely evening. Unless of course you hate lovely evenings. I wouldn't want to oppress anyone by wishing them well against their will.  |
1) Privacy in public is not an entitlement
Then allow me to say that neither you or anyone else is
entitled to decide that those of us wanting exercise our
RIGHT to privacy/nonengagement even in public situations do not have the right to decide that for us.
If anyone who interrupts me for more than a quick question and doesn't get the non verbal hints that I don't want to be bothered when I give them, will get a very verbal blunt direct statement of "please leave me ALONE."
Since you want to get picky over the use of the word entitlement, I will choose to use the word "right".
Violating a persons rights can land you in court/jail.
