Having been in around politics as a reporter and activist for many years now I find that I have a jaundiced view of anyone telling me to stay quiet and not rock the boat.

@LianaBrooks Nobody likes being told to shut up. You don’t like it, and neither do we. @bmacDonald94 @MartyFouts

I didn't say it to make anyone comfortable. If I wanted to persuade someone or reason with them, I would have chosen another phrase. I could have begged, or pleaded, or asked for respect and space... So let's take a minute to consider why I didn't think that would get any traction.
