Buried deep within things like the Tea Party and the Arizona immigration bill that is now being considered for adoption by at least three other states is the feeling of sheer panic in a threatened, the shit's going down so we gotta circle the wagons and protect ourselves kind of way. It's my feeling that such a thing is fueled by the 24/7 barrage of media screaming at every moment that every little thing is about to tilt the planet off it's own axis along with people's incredibly self-centered belief that if there is going to be Armageddon, of course it will be during their own lifetime.
I read somewhere once, probably via Jim Davis, perhaps during one of Nermal's yearly visits, that civilization is 24 hours and three missed meals away from chaos.
The world's gonna be a here a looooooong time,. Inhabited by people living their lives. So calm the fuck down.
