Yes, yes, many words, lots of rationality. The problem is that the cause is irrational. I do NOT like the fact that you are wearing an always-on recording device pointed in my direction. That's it. I don't like it. Just as I don't like people farting, burping and chewing with their mouths open.
Moreover, and that's the root of this whole "asshole" angle of the Glass use, I am hardly alone. In the unlikely event that you weren't aware of this before, now you are. Just read through the rest of comments here. Now you know that a lot of people feel the exact same way. And yet you insist on wearing it. You choose to act in spite. Do tell me how it makes you look to others and what they will in fact be tempted to call you. And then let's talk about tolerance and understanding.

Well, I will wear it if I was given one and just because you don't like it me wearing it all the time does not mean I have to drop it. That's something I can choose to do without being called an asshole. The same thing goes to people who are pro gun and who are not. It doesn't matter whether it is given by the Constitution or not. If saying owning a gun is morally bad, then one is disrespecting someone's preference to like owning a gun. Disclaimer: I am anti-gun.
I can temporarily remove it at your presence, but I am not going stop wearing it if I had one. That's my right to be a user. Being respectful doesn't mean you have to agree with me. You don't have to accept that God exist and that I am praying to Lord on the train when I am sitting next to you. And this has nothing to do with freedom of religion. It is a matter of preference that I chose to pray when I am riding the E train.
