Us lower-quality/traffic/etc folks have already made it completely clear that his particular brand of attention whoring is not welcome on our sites, so he aims higher? Does he think that folks like you are <em>less</em> likely, for some reason, to call him out as the scumbag he is and move on with your lives? *shrug* Makes no difference either way - he has lost his voice on our sites, and is progressively losing his voice on his own site, so it is only a matter of time before he disappears into the sea of noise that is the intertubes, but it still amuses me...<br /><br />... Especially because, as usual, he is completely clueless and wrong - 'prepared for' != 'in fear of', and his attempt at conflating those two concepts only illustrates the weakness of his argument.Linogehttp://www.wallsofthecity.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-40473160345936458642011-12-28T07:37:26.277-05:002011-12-28T07:37:26.277-05:00Since I have no traffic at my blog, I must blog fo...Since I have no traffic at my blog, I must blog for myself and not for these mythical "readers" I hear about.

Once one has recognized the moral responsibility of self protection they tend to do just this.

Do they lock their doors because they're scared? Do they have insurance because they're scared? Do they keep a first aid kit around because they're scared?<br /><br />People make rational judgements all the time about potential bad things happening to them and take steps that they deem prudent to avoid, minimize or mitigate those threats. This is not being "scared": it's a perfectly sensible thing to do.*<br /><br />What a doofus.<br /><br />----<br /><br />(*) And this ties in with being calmly, rationally aware of one's surroundings as you say. "Scared" implies irrational, instinctive, non-thinking, "fight or flight" fear. People who prepare themselves don't typically have this response, which is dangerous not only to themselves but also to other people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-11627895286116348352011-12-26T20:00:05.080-05:002011-12-26T20:00:05.080-05:00I will never understand the drive to have the bad ...I will never understand the drive to have the bad guys better armed than the good guys.Tango Juliethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07593296126387219845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-84180425029380460532011-12-26T19:08:03.327-05:002011-12-26T19:08:03.327-05:00As Clint Smith said: "If you carry a gun, pe...As Clint Smith said: "If you carry a gun, people will call you paranoid.
