2nd Encounter of the Day.... Over guns this time

84. I Never Said Anything About Guns

I simply pointed out that in some States, automobile insurance follows the car and not the driver. And I only did that because the person above me incorrectly stated the law when trying to draw a parallel between cars and guns. Even then, I tried to do it as respectfully as possible. Maybe you should try dialing back the outrage a bit before lunging at the throat of anyone you perceive to be taking a contrary position. One of the main reasons why this country is so divided right now is because people can't discuss things civilly. I blame the phenomenon on the rise of right-wing hate radio. With the advent of Rush Limbaugh and his copycats, not only are the people on the other side completely 100% wrong, but they're evil, America-hating monsters bent on the utter destruction of everything you hold dear. Rush Limbaugh made it not just OK, but STANDARD, to downright hate anyone who disagrees with you. Political discourse is poisonous in this country because you can't discuss an issue without someone becoming enraged and hurling epithets at you.
