And I used to play cowboys and indians. I suspect that I am the only person reading this who realizes that a lot of words have been put on the screen, but no actual ideas were communicated. To quote wolfgang Pauli. This is not even wrong.

There is not a single hypothesis put forth that can be tested (except for the one implied by the data that blacks and hispanics are inherently very violent people) No specific courses of action were described that could be implemented.  

This: His two-part cure involves basic media literacy to separate facts from fantasy to counter "people's susceptibility to (be harmfully) manipulat(ed) by violence's hypnotic effects."

Secondly, it requires working together to write a new narrative - a "much-needed next chapter in our cultural history," including new policies and defining metaphors, as well as "new ways of talking about what (most) matters" at all levels - at home, in schools, in community meetings, at all government levels, in business, between family and friends, and through the media.

is nothing more then words strung together to make you feel like something is happening. A kind of mental masturbation if you will, but not capable of producing anything, and unlike the real kind, you do not feel good.

It is my understanding that all of the violent actions, including AZ, high school, college shootouts, etc., involve mind altering drugs.

Should we consider outlawing such drugs ??
