I wouldn't break down and cry about it, I'd defend myself. The same can't be said for you constantly attacking the left wing for not being right wing.

Also repeating my last line at me makes you look silly since it really doesn't apply.

I don't 'cry' about it, I am generally pretty thick skinned, that is just your words/interpretation. Could that be yet another attempt to dismiss/undermine my opinions?

My objection is that some people spout this allegation at just about any criticism of Muslims, strongly suggesting it to be an attempt to shut down any argument. I am hardly the only person to say this.
