After reading "Right To Your Opinion" I was given the words to express my feelings towards ending and argument with the phrase "I'm entitled to my opinion". Since the definition of entitlement means a second party holds an obligation towards your entitlement. This concludes that ending an argument with this phrase basically is the person involved giving up on the argument because he or she can't refute the previous claim.
The article also mentioned how most people enter an argument with no intention of changing their mind. If neither party in an argument enters with an open mind then the discussion is going nowhere and is essentially pointless. The better conclusion can not be reached if persons involved aren't willing to 'lose' the debate.
