I run screaming hysterically at the sight of spiders, wasps, bees, etc.

I can't handle bugs...

The 101st Airborne is on OUR side. I sleep really well at night.
so is force recon and the navy seals, as well as the other special forces units of the US military.

I think it's funny that as of now, 20 are scared of "Democrats" yet only 10 of both "Republican AND Tea Party."

But Republican aren't paranoid. ....

Every time I see a thread like this I'm reminded of the in Return of the Jedi when Obi Wan tells Luke, "Then the Emperor has already won." What I see here is "Then the media has already won" because they've made so many people fearful of the unknown. I assume that most posters on here in are in the US, so you're more likely to get hit by a car or contract food poisoning than have your head cut off by someone in ISIS, contract ebola, or have some crazy Democrat force your daughter to have an abortion. Everyone take a deep breath, turn off the TV, go outside and take a walk, eat at a new restaurant, play with your children or get drunk. Just don't live your lives in fear because fear will be the end of you.
