Both feel very strongly about their preference. Let's say the head of the dog "party" is Tiger Woods, and let's say the head of the cat "party" is Lance Armstrong (you can interchange them...). If you're a cat person you can talk about what a cheater and hot head Tiger is. As a dog person, I might actually agree. I might not even respect Tiger Woods. But whether I think Tiger Woods is the best golfer ever or if I think he's a cheating skum, he is only the current figurehead for dog lovers. And ultimately, my "North star" is that I'm a dog lover.
Many people attack Tiger Woods or Lance Armstrong. Or they say why being a dog (or cat) person is unamerican. People need to understand why people are dog people or cat people. People need to stop attacking the other side. Agree to disagree. Both sides have good reasons for their preference/opinions. Stop putting the other side down...
Bravo, and then fact check to make yourself a more educated supporter of cats or dogs, phewww!
