Waaaay out of character but RIGHT.
This little quote just popped up on newsfeeds:
Lindsey Graham on potential terrorists: "We have to offer a hopeful life to compete with a glorious death."
Graham has been universally wrong on everything. I can't think of a single major politician (well, except McCain) who manages to be so totally wrong.
And yet.... unless the quote is entirely misleading and out of context, this one statement is POWERFULLY RIGHT and CONCISE and COMPLETE. If we IMPLEMENT THIS, carefully targeting young males who have no hope of useful work or loyal wives, we'd massively diminish all of our mass-violence problems. Gangs, school shootings, "terrorism". All the same problem masquerading under different superficial ideologies.
Unfortunately, Graham is also proposing a whole bunch of wrong stuff along with this one BIG right policy.
