We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

Re: Hell in the Sky
A government advisory committee is looking into whether a lack of legroom could also be dangerous for passengers' health and safety during air travel.
On Tuesday, a flight attendants' union testified at a committee hearing that the reduction in personal space has led to more air rage, with many of the incidents going unreported.
The lack of space could also lead to problems with evacuations, witnesses said, noting that the government runs safety tests with 31 inches between rows when some airlines today now have just 28 inches.
The advisory committee will eventually make non-binding suggestions to government regulators who will decide on the future of seating.
“We hold these truths to be self-evident,” former vice president Biden said during a campaign event in Texas on Monday. "All men and women created by — you know, you know, the thing.”
