Mark Steyn with an interesting take on violence


Recommended Posts

This video was done just hours before the assassination attempt on a group of Capitol Hill Republicans practicing for a friendly baseball game. Before!

Please, watch the whole video (it's less than 20 minutes), but pay particular attention to the part that starts at about 13:40 where he describes how murdering another human being can easily become nothing more than a "technical exercise" in the case of some radicalized nut-jobs. It gave me a chill.

Some folk round here are reluctant to accept the idea, but war is coming to our streets. The pedophiles on the Hill will not go quietly into the night or to a  jail cell, and they are ginning up the foolish masses to fight their war for them as seen here:

WTF does this have to do with pedophiles? Papist, remove your mouth from Alex Jones beans. Do you even know what a pedophile is? Apparently not with this post.

Killing is deceptively easy, deceptive because many think themselves unable to do it. History teaches otherwise. It's not very difficult to rile people up such that they do not even see their adversaries as legitimate human beings. We've a long and voluminous history of genocide, torture, murder for all kinds of reasons, so we have to conclude that large percentages of any population are quite easily brought to do what they may have previously considered unthinkable.

Our morality hangs by a shoestring for most of us, and it is cut with little effort when our comfortable worlds are replaced by fear and stress. We wrap ourselves in modern conveniences, clothes, technology, buildings, but in our hearts we are the same savages who sat around a campfire as part of a small tribe plotting the ways in which the tribe over the hill has wronged us and fantasizing about how we will seek our rightful justice.
