Questions are always legitimate, but sometimes are just thrown "out there" to stir up an opinion frenzy.

If you truly have a question you want answered, seeking knowledge or context, then that is legitimate.

If you just want to stir a hornet's nest, as I plan to do with my question about the federal funding shortfall in the struggle for recognition of the legitimacy of land rights for gay whales, real toothed whales, not those woosy baleen bitches, then be prepared to be castigated by the right minded, cetacean friendly majority who swim, sorry, frequent this forum.
