We have all seen it again and again, and on various occasions you have even admitted to having a "blunt" style that people should get used to. Well I think you should get used to fact that if you rile people up they will eventually have an outburst.
You are making a generalization to justify the irrational behavior of just a few. I have admitted to being blunt and still do, but in the sense that I go straight to the point without runarounds. This and the fact that I have a critical eye annoys people because in most cases it points to the uncomfortable or inconvenient truth. I see acting otherwise as hypocritical, which I have never been and will never be (at least not knowingly).
