gun, are either cowards or mental cases, IMHO. If someone threatened those guys they should call the police and let them take care of it. Carrying guns to public parks and political gatherings seems insane to me.

Symptoms of Paranoia

The main symptom is permanent delusion. It should be kept in mind that there is delusion in schizophrenia also but in that case it is not permanent or organized. In paranoia the symptoms of delusion appear gradually, and the patient is sentimental, suspicious, irritable, introverted, depressed, obstinate, jealous, selfish, unsocial and bitter...Read More.

Edit to add...

What Are the Symptoms Of Paranoia?

One of the key symptoms of paranoia is a firm belief that other people intend to do harm to the patient, accompanied by a lack of trust in other people. Someone with paranoia is in a state of permanent delusion, with beliefs which cannot be shaken, despite ample evidence to the contrary. One of the big issues with the treatment of paranoia is that it can be difficult to get a patient to go to therapy or to find an acceptable therapist, due to deep-seated beliefs that everyone is out to get the patient, and is therefore not worthy of trust...Read More

19. Hateists.

Some folks say they are smarter, more well educated, and older than your average American.

I say they are ignorant, hate filled, racist, self centered, traitors to the spirit that built America.

I say if they want to fix the Federal Budget - then stop cashing their Social Security checks and burn their Medicare cards.

If they are not willing to do that, they are not part of the solution, they are part of the fucking problem and its time to sit down and STFU.
