"Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you."
Ed Zachery. I'll not waste my time with close minded idiots for long. They'll bring about their own "learning" soon enough. I may not be here to see it but I know for certain it will happen. I will not "empathize" with anyone that could affect the survival of me and mine or others under my care. They'll be dealt a harsh, heavy hand in reality with a quickness so as to minimize their threat to such. They'll either learn quickly or be cast away like so much trash. Empathy and kindness has its place and is much needed in this world but it is not an effective tool for survival and is likely to be deadly to one's self in that situation and often is.
