That's the problem with these people though, they can't put themselves in others shoes. They can't see past the end of their own nose to try and understand what life is like for someone else.

Yeah, I can't argue that. Lots of hate in the world, and so much of it from people just like you describe.

Maybe this person is different. Maybe not. Worst case, my approach changes nothing. But, maybe it will.
