IMPORTANT MORAL LESSONS...FROM CARRYING A GUN

Read it- rings true to me. Seriously beautiful article on the positive effects of gun ownership on character.

But in other life and death news today- the net is all abuzz with the man killed in the Wal-mart shopping stampede. Predictably, the left is foaming at the mouth (again), saying: "See! That's what capitalism does to people! It's eeeevil!." Well I'm tired...so very tired...and its not from the tryptophan in all the turkey I ate. It's from hearing the broken greatest fits record from TheHippy Nutbag Love Chorus, stuck on replay for so many decades. Playing over...and over....

Know what? What causes people to act like animals in a feeding frenzy is the indoctrination and enforcement of narcissism and selfishness that the "freedom loving" hippies have brought us, not Capitalism. Thinking of other people only makes you feel bad about your need to keep up your blissfull buzz. Who needs the guilt?

You don't strive to follow the good anymore. Unreachable goals only make you feel bad! You're a hypocrite if you aim for the stars and don't ever end up holding them in the palm of your hand.
Besides, good and bad is such a phony, old-fashioned distinction- 'least according the the well-educated that are smarter than y'all dumb rednecks.

No, now you follow "your bliss." And if your bliss needs that great deal down at the Wal-mart there, the haters just better get outa yer way! You deserve it! How dare anyone tear down your self-esteem! Instead of having a code to follow, fine tuned over a couple thousand years and embedded in our culture (ie. Christianity), we throw all that out the window (or through the window at Wal-mart) and follow the code of "whatever it takes to make me feeeel that blissful buzz, maaan!" Feeling good is what good is.

People of this nation once had the jelly of Christianity to go with the peanut butter of Capitalism and it worked- imperfectly of course, since they system is made of, you know, actual human beings, but it worked. More and more I'm noticing their interdependence.

But no more samich now. Nope. We just take whatever pill in necessary to "follow our bliss,"
and everyone else can just kiss our damn ass.
