Worthy of Consideration

Why are some conservatives so angry
When faced with an opposing opinion?
They cannot rationally consider a view
That differs from theirs, how unthinkable
To admit another perspective is warranted
That another idea has legitimate merit
Worthy of consideration, at least hearing
With an open mind, nowadays hard to find.
