Both are annoying.
Anti-latter, but not totally nutty. Didn't like Obama and didn't like most PD's (hates Portland PB). Didn't really like liberals either, but he accepted my right to hold a differing opinion just as I did of him. Nice fellow past that.
Also, we learned about other good self-defense weapons. Like cars. Good for breaking contact and blunt-force trauma. Also cause more deaths than guns.
I never understood why people are scared of flying or terrorists when they're much more likely to die from the vehicle they use daily to locomote. It's like a person being scared of a rare degenerative disease they are unlikely to develop while they're prone to heart disease. Er, wrong phobia there.
Although while one can't deny gun violence is a serious problem in a America that should really be tackled soon by a (competent!) congress, yeah, you're much more likely to die from a distraction while driving.
