Here are two visuals representing Der Drumpt. The first is proof of the resurrection:
Another Day, Another Idiot Move
Is there any truth to the rumor that Drumpf, surviving without the benefit of alcohol, is considering outlawing beer in this country? After all, the path to mass shootings often involves a six-pack. I understand that various pundits have convinced the Orange-One that by removing beer and video games from society the sale of Parcheesi games will skyrocket the stock market back into the black.
Beliefs Kill People
Guns Don’t Kill People, Beliefs Kill People
BY MICHAEL SHERMER
If by fiat I had to draw one core generalization from a quarter century spent studying the psychology of beliefs, it is that almost everyone thinks that their beliefs are right, both ontologically and ethically. For the most part, people think that their beliefs are true, moral, or both. No one joins a cult—they join a group that they believe is going to help them and/or society. No one thinks they’re practicing pseudoscience—they believe they’ve discovered a new truth that mainstream science has yet to recognize. And very few believe their actions are immoral—at the time they had perfectly rational and moral reasons for acting as they did.
You do not have to give people reasons to be violent, because they already have plenty of reasons. All you have to do is take away their reasons to restrain themselves.
