My right to defend my position when it comes to those attacking me for it?

You say that you don't personally attack me, but I have given you clear cut examples of those attacks but you just say I have no clue what it means to be personally attacked. But then, I ask you what your definition of a personal attack is and instead of answering the question I get more harassment from you telling me to concede and calling into question my masculinity. You call my arguments trivial, petty and ridiculous. I call that flame bait and a personal attack.

I will continue to counter baseless claims and hyped up rhetoric on this forum and I will defend myself when I am harassed for my opinion and especially the constant harassment aimed squarely at me and me alone just because I don't march to the union drum as you would have me do. I too am here to inform just as you are, but I don't ridicule you as you and others here have done time and again.

Is it your goal to see if you can get me to the tipping point of frustration with the incessant attacks? Well, I will not tire if you are going to make me the subject of your internet entertainment.

But one final question of which I doubt you will answer, if my arguments are so trivial, petty and ridiculous, why do you keep responding to them other than to just call me names?
