Again, the political spectrum is not linear. Where the left and right meet you'll find authoritarianism; the liberals hate guns and the right-wingers hate people against authority...that's where ruby ridge fits in. Whatever the political view...people in authority feel the need to exert their authority. This is why I'm opposed to the expansion of government and bureaucracy.
No need to single one side, left or right, out over the other. They're both corrupt and anyone with even the smallest capable thought process knows that. Do you think these things come up when they're running around in the woods without any underwear at the Bohemian Club?
That really fails to explain the liberal need to use force like tehy did at ruby ridge and waco for minmor weapon violations. It seem that liberals over react to just about evry law enforcement situaion they get into and froget individaul rights if they don't like the group or individaul they are dealing with. Both instances are now taught in police schools as now not to react to a situation.

Actually Republicans fall into the category of reacting rather than reasoning [this also suggests lack of self-esteem\identity w/ limited education
happ, you are such a bigot. You are seriously suggesting that the right, more than the left, is uneducated with no self-esteem? LMFAO...DELUSIONAL. People of any political persuasion can fall victim to subservience to authority, it's a personality trait more than anything.
Oh yeah.
As the article mentions however the name is a bit of a misnomer as such people can be either on the extreme political Right or the extreme political Left.
No surprise to me as I've long felt that the standard Right-Left political spectrum is not the best representation of political reality. A better one would be Totalitarians (both NAZI (Right) types and Communists (Left) types) on one side and Anarchists on the other.
It is quite an interesting read, and sheds a lot of light on what is going on in our country and the mental processes of a lot of so-called "conservatives." This mental condition is based on three characteristics: Authoritarian submission (submission to established authorities), authoritarian aggression (general aggressiveness toward "deviants"), and conventionalism (a high degree of adherence to social norms).
Among other factors, RWAs can be identified as people who are ethnocentric, highly nationalistic, say they value freedom but actually work toward undermining the Bill of Rights, support capital punishment, oppose abortion, do not value equality very highly and oppose measures to increase it, and are not likely to rise in the Democratic party, but do so among Republicans.

I happenend upon a link, much more interesting, that divulges the interconectedness of honey and brain cell membrane. Open your sinus cavity and insert a dog tail (the dog being dead for 123 day) and you will be enlightened.
Doofus.
