This is what I am talking about! Playground antics!

My god folks, don't you see this? A statement like this is just intimidation. It is a meaningless and pointless insult, but gives the insulter the smug feeling that he has really taught the "target" a lesson and then the "target" will be intimidated into not saying anything else that differs from the group.

The gang mentality takes over and as long as everyone else that is part of the group follows, he will be right!

Now take that to a larger context and when a nation assumes the same mentality it becomes...A DICTATORSHIP!
