ucbaseballman, I agree with some of your complaints, but Wonoz is correct that you're no longer really arguing for your case; rather, you're just insulting anyone who disagrees with you. Rather than looking at the arguments the opposition presents and responding to them, you're essentially saying, "Anyone who disagrees with me isn't worth listening to!"
This is a great way to convince yourself that your view is correct, but it doesn't work so well on others. I've done the same thing when worked up; I think most people have. However, when it's brought to your attention, you need to recognize it and not continue on that path.
Again, I'm not disagreeing with your fundamental premise that plants are, perhaps, a bit too strong; but let's keep the discussion mature and rational, and not lash out with logical fallacies!
