Things You Can't Criticize

• Teachers
• Voting
• Firefighters
• Police officers
• Soldiers
• Any religion but your own

I'm not saying I want to criticize any of these people or things, just that propriety and preservation prevent me from doing so.


The only type of person that can successfully criticize these things is someone who finds a small flaw that most of us agree deserves criticism (which then can be leveraged into a broader condemnation), or someone who is so far above reproach on everything else that they are just politely acknowledged (like Charlton Heston's comments near the end of his life regarding gun control ➚), or someone who is fundamentally right and has identified something obvious the rest of us have overlooked.

Working on a larger post, different subject, taking some time.
