THE



CARTOONIST!

Sound, rational and...

...scarey thought from Dr. Sanity. Please go and read both pieces. This is definitely not for the feint hearted.

THE LOGIC OF THE PARANOID

The paranoid person always takes himself seriously. It is rarely the case that such a person presents to a psychiatrist seeking help or complaining about their projections; because for the paranoid individual, his paranoid thinking and his projections explain so much about his life....

...in addition to externalizing blame for one's own pitiful situation in life, there is yet another advantage to paranoia and projection: the proper kind of distortion of reality can also reliably pump up self-esteem. True, it pumps it up at the expense of a great deal of fear sometimes; but nevertheless, it is comforting to know that someone appreciates your genius. Clearly if the CIA, FBI, aliens, Jews [fill in your favorite bogeyman here] are out to get you, you must be special and unique...

...under the proper circumstances, paranoia and projection may be resorted to by entire groups and nations in order to externalize blame and/or resolve some unacceptable national state (in order to counter overwhelming shame or humiliation, for example)...

...Here is one of many projections that the Arabs and Muslims of the Middle East regularly resort to as they try to avoid dealing with the irrefutable evidence of their own backwardness: Avian Flu May Have Been Developed by Israel, to Damage Arabs' Genes...

...I wonder if they have calculated that the cartoon jihad riots--which are clearly spreading in true pandemic fashion all over the world just as any virulent and contagious illness would--have laid the foundation for a grand gesture. You know, something that would kill a million or so infidels?...

...notice that the cartoon riots are escalating even as the West bends over backwards to appease and mollify these sociopathic bullies of Islam? I'm sorry to tell you that the increasingly violent Islamic response to appeasement, solicitation, and understanding has always been completely predictable from a psychological perspective. Bullies will always push the envelope of bad behavior when they think they can get away with it...

...It's no use saying that such behavior doesn't make sense and would be irrational and suicidal. Just think of Ahmadinejad as the ultimate, high-tech suicide bomber who has wrapped that nuclear bomb belt securely around his entire country...

I hope I am wrong; but all my psychiatric instincts tell me that we have a situation where we are facing imminent suicidal and homicidal behavior...

In honor of President's Day...

...I want to put up one or two quotes from a favorite President.



The things that will destroy America are prosperity at any price, peace at any price, safety first instead of duty first, the love of soft living and the get rich quick theory of life.




It is both foolish and wicked to teach the average man who is not well off that some wrong or injustice has been done him, and that he should hope for redress elsewhere than in his own industry, honesty, and intelligence.

It may (or may not) have been noted that...

...the green guy is not a particular fan of the ACLU. The following was posted by Jay at Stop the ACLU. It tends to point out the dangers of life in a litiguous world.



ACLU Blamed for First ‘Real’ TASER Death - from U.S. Newswire


...The Law Enforcement Alliance of America is calling the recent fatal shooting of a knife wielding man in Antioch, Calif. the nation’s "first real TASER death" and that the ACLU of Northern California is to blame.



News reports indicate that Antioch, Calif. police officers were called to the home of 27-year-old Scott Dittman. When Dittman, armed with a butcher knife, allegedly lunged at the officers, he was shot and killed. Facing an armed and dangerous subject, police officers are entirely justified in using lethal force...



The death of Scott Dittman is exceptionally tragic because of the absence of alternatives available to the police officers on the scene. The Antioch police department has TASER less than lethal devices, but news reports quoting police officials suggest the department had suspended the use of TASERs due to the legal and political issues. A controversy LEAA believes was stirred up by the ACLU of Northern California when it issued a misleading and dangerous "study" on law enforcement use of TASERs late last year.


Jay continues... ...I criticise the ACLU for absolutist, and stubborn posititions without regard to consequences. Lets be clear, that this man’s death is not directly because of the ACLU, the idiot lunging at the cop’s with a butcher knife is, and he payed the price for his stupidity. However, the ACLU’s relentless war against TASER is ridiculous, and one can not dismiss that consequences result from giving in to their ridiculous demands...


The frog has got to agree that the ACLU tends toward the looney limb of reality.


Peace and all good,
