political polarization

#6

Quote:Just look at the political bullying we're witnessing today.  Blocking roads and committing crimes to disrupt a candidate's rally is not voicing opposition.  Opposition is to be heard, and not destroyed.  That doesn't matter what side you're on.  But that's another pattern that's showing itself.  Those who have not effectively influenced their opposition through reasoning and argument are the very ones throwing those intellectual debates out the window in favor of brute force, and mob power.  And that, on its face, is a guarantee of disaster for the country, when intelligence, wisdom, and debate is overthrown by barbarians and brute force.

Absolutely amazing paragraph.


makes a lot more sense why when I see post debate coverage and hear them declare a winner I'm baffled at the number of times they just say the bully won the debate and the most sensible candidate with the intellectual arguments came off as weak.

Go Jags!
*To stay up for atleast 2 years 3/6/17
2016 draft players I think will be good
  • On the Fournette train, will be best back of his class 3/6/17
  • Lattimore please,  Lockdowns on both sides would be nice
  • Engram at TE and the MJD clone Samaje Perine
