It is a radical mindset now days to be honest. You might offend someone ! O my ! -- Ronw13, Yachats Or 2
'Radical' is what you call 'the other guy' for challenging your long held beliefs. Whenever the word 'radical' is used by the press, it indicates the slant of the speaker. Any freedom is considered 'radical' by those that wish to have that freedom curtailed. Those defending their gun rights are called 'radical' by the gun grabbers, and those defending their access to raw milk are 'radical' by the Dairy Industry, the folks smoking and drinking in their own homes without permission from the caliphate are considered 'radical' by Shiites. Politicians and the media use the word 'radical' to discredit the ideas being proffered without investigation. If we do not believe that "the science is settled" we are radicals. The quote is right on!! -- E Archer, NYC 2
