Using his law enforcement experience and data drawn from the FBI’s behavioral analysis unit, Jim Kouri has collected a series of personality traits common to a couple of professions.
Kouri, who’s a vice president of the National Assn. of Chiefs of Police, has assembled traits such as superficial charm, an exaggerated sense of self-worth, glibness, lying, lack of remorse and...

Islam is crazy. Last time I checked, you leave crazy alone. You don’t walk up to a psychopath and start poking him, you’re in trouble if you do.
Sometimes I think you’re just an asshole troll, doing more harm than good for anarchism, or libertarianism, or whatever you feel like calling yourself at any given time.
It astounds me that anyone actually follows you.

“Progressives love to point out the hypocrisy of social conservatives who righteously rail against (and demand legal sanction for) the very same sexually sinful behavior in which they enthusiastically engage — and rightly so. But what about a society that continues to imprison millions of human beings for using substances that vast numbers of people in the nation have...

Why Public Schools Must Be Abolished

By Cevin Soling
In 1852, Aunt Phillis’s Cabin was published. The novel depicts a romantic vision of joyful slaves cared for by patriarchal masters. This idealized conception of slavery was pitted against the harsh reality of free blacks in the North facing deprivations. The prevailing myth was that slavery not only enabled the cultural superiority of the South, but also...

I go through things on my dashboard, so I see everything you say. lol I’m a pro-life feminist, myself, but i think it’s silly to isolate oneself from the opposing viewpoint. You learn more by opening yourself up to the prospect of being corrected.
I somewhat isolate myself, depending on what it is. I know I’ll never support any government involvement...

Why can’t I have artsy and/or minimalist themes and text under my pictures/videos?
WHY?!
Sometimes I look like a feminist, pro-choice (or pro-life, because let’s be honest, both sides are stupid), socialist, or an obama lover all because people can’t see my text.
And then those kinds of people follow me.
And then they get pissed when they find views that don’t...

Why Anti-Authoritarians are Diagnosed as Mentally... →
golgothagrizzly:
Some activists lament how few anti-authoritarians there appear to be in the United States. One reason could be that many natural anti-authoritarians are now psychopathologized and medicated before they achieve political consciousness of society’s most oppressive authorities.
I worked out an anarchistic theory that all government is evil, that the...

It’s so wonderful when your queue pushes out things relevant to your argument right when you’re talking about them.
mrs-annie-odair asked: So basically, you're using the word "indoctrination" to mean "teaching anything that contradicts with my personal worldview." Tell me, what makes your worldview so superior to anyone else's?

Today in my political philosophy class the professor began with a bit of a thought experiment. She presented the following case to the class.
Imagine that you live within a neighborhood which has recently seen an increase in crime. Local authorities are never on time to prevent the crime, so a group of individuals within your neighborhood decide to take matters in...

I don’t know if this is true to you but for me sometimes it gets so bad that anything else say like looking at a bird on an overhead power line seems as great as a Beethoven symphony. then you forget it and you’re back again.

imaurel replied to your post:
They follow quite a few of the same rules, liberals and conservatives. I think this person misunderstood; you’re not Glen Beck, your points aren’t only aimed at the progressives.
I just don’t understand reading one post and then basing an argument or point off of it. It doesn’t take long to find out that I’m not at all conservative, especially since...

mrs-annie-odair asked: Why do you seem to think that colleges are indoctrination mills? The sheer fact that plenty of colleges hire conservative-leaning professors (I had quite a few of those, and I didn't go to a conservative college, either), along with the fact that there exist such things as conservative colleges (Brigham Young University and Liberty University come to mind) pretty much prove that point of...
