Your arguments are fine, but doomed to failure anyway. I would give them this link and then walk away:

Any alternative theory must explain all of these experiments. Not just Michelson Morley

I liked how he made space for a whole section just to roast people. It's like the Darwin/Razzy awards but for experimentalists:

He mis-spelled the name of the anti-relativist Hartwig Thim.

Thim's dubious IEEE paper "Absence of the relativistic transverse Doppler shift at microwave frequencies":

A counter-argument against Thim's anti-SR interpretation of his experiment:
