I dont agree with Angus's sentiment. Everyone is allowed their opinion and comment. However, dont be surprised when people challenge your opinion if its misinformed or controversial. You want to wade into a discussion and drop some hot stuff, dont be surprised if skeptical people check your street cred and call you out on it when you dont seem to have any. Experience matters a lot when it comes to opinions.
