      In my case… after realizing that democracy just ushers in degeneracy of every kind, where ever it’s established, I’ve given up on democracy. Moving forward I will be focusing my energy in ushering in a more Godly form of government, one of which will civilize the savages amongst our citizens by any means necessary.

        Ah, Y’all Qaeda and the Talibangelicals in charge. That’ll only set us back a century or two in rights and general intelligence. Tell me, which monuments will you destroy first? The Statue of Liberty? Burn the Library of Congress?

        I’m glad you get to decide what degeneracy is. I wouldn’t want anybody else to have that power.
