“If I am drowning in a rapid river, a man who still has one foot on the bank may give me a hand which saves my life. Ought I to shout back (between my gasps) ‘No, it’s not fair! You have an advantage! You’re keeping one foot on the bank’? That advantage—call it ‘unfair’ if you like—is the only reason why he can be of any use to me. To what will you look for help if you will not look to that which is stronger than yourself?” -CS Lewis

In one study of police that I have no reason to believe is atypical, they are more likely to experience euphoria than sadness after a fatal encounter. Why are we always lectured about the toll that is invariably taken on those who commit homicide? It's often, and probably usually not true, just wishful thinking by pacifists.

I give some thoughts on voting third party or, even sillier, writing in a candidate. tldr: lol

"It is just the people who are ready to submit to the loss of the thrill and settle down to the sober interest, who are then most likely to meet new thrills in some quite different direction." -CS Lewis
