Now, what I want is, Facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts. Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning animals upon Facts: nothing else will ever be of any service to them. This is the principle on which I bring up my own children, and this is the principle on which I bring up these children. Stick to Facts, sir! — Hard Times
My Take – Want to flip one of my switches? It’s easy. Just try to win an argument by saying “I feel” or “I believe”. Tell me what you know, not how you feel about a subject or what you believe. Feelings are for poetry; belief is for religion. Show some discipline, learn what is and what is not known, and be able to discuss and argue that. Until you do that, I’m not interested in anything you have to say.

/ December 10, 2012Every notice how the antis reject our ‘feelings’ or ‘beliefs’ ?
I feel safer carrying a firearm or having a house full of guns — doesn’t matter because the 2nd Amendment is about a militia.
I believe that every American should be a member of a miltia – doesn’t matter because the National Guard is the new militia.
I feel like owning a gun capable of firing 600 rounds per minute — latent killer.
Logic; they lack it.
