Weirdly enough, it is not the presence of guns that drives gun crime, but poverty, gangs and mental illness. Something has changed about people as well. When I grew up most every boy had a pocket knife, even a school. In Cub Scouts, Weebelos and Eagle Scouts you were required to have one. During hu...

The philosophical foundations of his arguments are the biggest reason why I disagree with him, especially his loopy concept of "truth" as "what is useful for survival in a Darwinian sense".

I also think anti-SJW is a perfectly acceptable label for people who oppose SJW politics.
