Statists have an incredibly poor view of mankind. They believe that the government must control the people from their basest instincts. They believe that if left to their own devices, they will rob, steal, rape and murder. They believe people must be controlled.
They fear freedom.
Jill Moring, of Pueblo West, demonstrates this belief in her letter to the editor of the Denver Post today.
She writes,
The Colorado State University Board of Governors is now allowing guns on campus. I would not want to be the faculty member who has to tell the student with a gun in his backpack, “No, there is no way you can pass this course, and no, you will not graduate this year.”
Wow. Ms. Moring believes that people are so base, so mean, so nasty and so brutish, that a college student would shoot her professor for bad grades.
It is no wonder statists fear freedom. They believe people are evil and must be controlled.
