Message: From GoLocalProv by John Perilli, GoLocalProv MINDSETTER™: There's nothing like a loose-lipped culture warrior to start a good argument. 2013 has certainly seen more than its share of outsized personalities get pilloried for airing their views on social issues, ranging from celebrities like the Food Network's Paula Deen, who took a roasting for her use of racial slurs, to powerful public figures like New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly, who was shouted down at Brown University as part of a protest against his controversial "Stop and Frisk" policy. They have their critics, and they have their defenders. The angry fires burn for a few weeks, then eventually settle down. It's almost a routine by now. http://www.golocalprov.comhttp://beta.golocalprov.com/john-perilli-of-ducks-debates-and-dehumanization
