That's making an assumption. I know many people that would engage in this behavior that know how to be civil. Hell, some of them are better at it than most people I know. The problem is that civility isn't getting the people anywhere. When your elected officials aren't responsive to civility and you don't have the money to give them what we know they listen to, and our electoral system is rigged to favor partisanship over the people, what options are left?
