Rand Paul, intolerant loser

Though I am starting to get the hang of this thing you're doing -- it seems as if people believe the way you do, they'll view it as a free pass to be jerks towards other people in their day to day routine and never fear any consequences or have to take responsibility. Perhaps Tim also feels the same way.

If you go through life assuming all people are bad, all people are potentially violent, and all people have no goodwill to offer and no ability to restrain themselves from hurting other people -- then what's the point in even trying to act like a decent human being to other people, right? I mean, they're all pitiful, bad, nasty, violent creatures anyway, so there's no point in being any different because they're going to do what they do anyway, so just even bothering to have a bare minimum of basic decency towards each other is a totally futile endeavor.

That's certainly not the world I live in. Then again, I'm not a violent pent-up anger ball waiting to explode and hurt other people like Tim and his apologists, but thanks for opening my eyes that the rest of the world views it this way and would punch me in the face for daring to believe otherwise. Strange that I don't really ever experience this as a matter of course in my day to day life considering how sure you are that it's just how the world works dictated by the human condition and having just given up on bothering to be any better than it.
