I'm not sure that there's anything to argue. It's true that there was
another round of local root exploits found in the Linux kernel. Linux does
have security issues, just like any OS. Unlike some other OSes, though,
security fixes are generally timely (unlike, say, the six months it took
Microsoft after the remote ASN.1 vulnerabilities were pointed out to them
;-)
