Bingo. I worked security for a long time. Arguing back never works. Literally never. When is the last time that you actually argued someone into submission by being the loudest or even the one who was quiet and smart about it? People have predispositions about their point of view: no matter what. they are right. The best arguers find common grounds and end the argument based on what they agree on and respectfully disagreeing on the rest. It's their loss!
