So you are suggesting a vote for the greater of two evils? Really only two choices.

That's just it... No offense, but I trust me more than I trust you. just because you see it this way doesn't mean I should. I think we have some differing priorities. I think we both agree that an out-of-the-box thinker, and an incorruptible libertarian would be ideal, but I am a pragmatist, and I don't see this happening.

The discussion on here is great, and it does affect others' views. First thing that comes to mind (and you'll be particularly gratified to hear this) is that my views on gun control have been very much shifted by some discussions on here, coupled with some personal research (which is what really makes my decisions).

However, I am deeply troubled by the tendency for so many to be so deeply invested in the belief that they have a corner on the 'truth' market that any disagreement is a sign of ignorance and idiocy.

Now I am really done here. I have work to do
