re: #28 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

It started with basic “principles” like that blacks are lazy and inferior, and deserve the status accorded to them by society and the economy, and that Latinos are coming here to steal our jobs, while sponging off our social system (and sell us drugs against our will)

And the principle that anything labeled “socialism” is evil and designed to wreck society, and that the Unregulated Free Market can do anything and everything better than government.

They took that principle of “taxation without representation is tyranny” and turned it into “taxation is tyranny”

And the principle that homosexuality is unnatural and that gays have to “propagate” by converting and seducing others, especially impressionable youths.

And the principle that an openly armed society is a more polite and orderly society.

I agree with all but the last.

They want a covertly armed society because “in an openly armed society people might still feel they have the right to be uncivil to someone who isn’t visibly carrying a handgun”.
