Whether it’s a group of militia in Oregon or some idiot making declarations or statements on your FaceBook page or any other place on the internet it’s apparent there’s tons of ignorance prevalent in our country. However, it seems rather than be embarrassed by their ignorance and wanting to become knowledgeable with truth and facts, the ignorant relish in their ignorance.
We can make comments on why and who benefits from all this ignorance, but the bottom line is the country suffers. As much as I want to smack their ignorant heads and shake some truth and reality into their heads, what I really do is weep for our future.
Crashing Vor points out today just one area where ignorance of history, civics and a basic understanding of how our government works is leading people to do and say things a modicum of knowledge could prevent.
