Kansas Prairie Dogs

Yes, these Kansas prairie dog varmint certainly are dangerous. I mean, their work certainly disproves that proverb about words never hurting me. Words certainly can be very dangerous. It is not so much one comment here or there that maybe stings and can be easily ignored, but rather it is a whole mob scene of thousands of people echoing and repeating the same half-truths and lies, that Parrot Effect, that can really cause great violence to the truth and which cannot be countered and overturned without huge unbelievable effort and disharmony to the rules of civility and polite society. Sarah Kugler may have had her particular opinion about certain things but she was never the president of the universe and so while it may be interesting to listen what she has to say, she is not the sum total of the story and these Kansas prairie dogs need to sleep in their little gopher holes where they belong so they do not disturb the peace. We cannot have motormouth Sarah Kugler flapping her jaws all the time. We also have to give other people a chance to talk so that we can get a more complete picture of the landscape.
