Well it's been a part of human history hasn't it? De-humanising people so that they feel better about killing them. It happens in cars, it happens in the military, and it happens in the media.
These days it is less acceptable to be so intolerant of others. Which is why Bush is getting such a bad run. And it's also why the majority of his supporters are sub-smart.
But some very good points there Volsung! I can't fault you on any of them.
