They think the national guard is very important to have around, yet they don’t even think of where they will sleep, go to the lavatory, or eat. They didn’t care.

The Philosophical AngleWhy Liberals Call Conservatives StupidI heard a Rush Limbaugh show awhile ago about the habit of liberals, particularly progressive liberals, call conservatives epithets such as stupid, dumb, ignorant, deplorable, and so forth and so on. I had to ask myself why is that so? Why do they call us stupid?!
It is just so peculiar because conservatives do not do that to liberals. That is, they do not use pejorative adjectives to denote stupidity when speaking of liberals.

As the massacre in Florida indicates, man’s behavior can easily go outside the normal biological distribution of genetics that attempts to control the impulse to intra-species slaughter. Sometimes in other species, you can see this type of behavior, but it is rare; and it usually only occurs under unusual or unnatural situations. And that is the clue for us in understanding the human species situation. TPA now explains!
