National Rifle Association Bans Bleeding “Obama” Target, Others Remain

16. one big, sick, unhappy family

It's billboards, placards, viral e-mails, tasteless jokes sent around for people to get their chuckles and other things that show the lack of respect for the elected office he serves.

One of the worst parts of a convention like this is they feel they have "comrades in arms." They feed off each other.

We've all heard the term "emotional contagion," which means emotions spread. When we watch laughing baby clips on youtube, that's why we also start laughing. We hear others laughing, in most cases, we might smile or even start laughing.

It would be interesting to study the behavior of these social misfits after they leave the convention.

Furthermore, I think quite a number of them are simply maladjusted, unhappy people who have something wrong with them cognitively or emotionally. As you say, collective IQ of 55, but emotionally, I'll bet you'd find a high number of cases of arrested development.

They find an "emotional family" in the NRA much like kids do when they join gangs.
