[Serious] Violence, what violence?
#2
RE: Violence, what violence?
I think conservatives are more apt to think that violence solves problems generally.

I'm not being cheeky. There was a psychological study done that hinted at this conclusion. Years ago... so I'm not 100% on it. And the study didn't say conservatives were more violence prone or anything... just that they were more apt to see violence as a means to solve problems.

But it does fit the anecdotal model. Remember the criticism of Obama's "apology tour?" Like, Obama admitted to a few of America's mistakes and was berated by the right for not pounding his chest and spitting threats at Iran.
