People often ask, “How do you handle mean, vicious people when out in public?” The truth is I rarely encounter nastiness. It does happen, but thankfully, it is pretty rare.
In general, when people don’t like me, they possess the maturity to restrain themselves from verbal road rage. I conduct myself the same way when I run into someone whose views I don’t care for. At a restaurant, I said hello to a host of a left-wing cable show, and he politely returned the gesture. After all, I dislike Hamas, the Taliban and drivers who fail to use their turn signals much more.
And, from time to time when encountering someone who disagrees with me — depending upon the situation and my mood — I invest the time to engage in a civil, productive conversation. Sometimes the “antagonist” reassesses his or her position. I told her I spent 30 years in talk radio, and that a few years ago I ran for governor in the California recall election.I told her I am used to people disagreeing. “But,” I said, “What’s our biggest disagreement?” I asked myself, “What’s the over/under how quickly she says ‘Trump’?”
