I think this sort of speaks for itself. Rather than commenting, I prefer to hear the comments of freepers.....

Another fist-fight started over philosophy. When will the madness end?

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table.
David Hume could out-consume
Schopenhauer and Hegel,
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.

There’s nothing Nietzsche couldn’t teach ya’
‘Bout the raising of the wrist.
SOCRATES, HIMSELF, WAS PERMANENTLY PISSED...

John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
Plato, they say, could stick it away;
Half a crate of whiskey every day.
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,
Hobbes was fond of his dram,
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart: “I drink, therefore I am”
Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed;
A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he’s pissed!

From wikipedia

The categorical imperative (German: Kategorischer Imperativ) is the central philosophical concept in the deontological moral philosophy of Immanuel Kant. Introduced in Kant's 1785 Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals, it may be defined as a way of evaluating motivations for action.

According to Kant, human beings occupy a special place in creation, and morality can be summed up in one ultimate commandment of reason, or imperative, from which all duties and obligations derive. He defined an imperative as any proposition declaring a certain action (or inaction) to be necessary.

I guess the shooter decided that it was necessary to shoot the other guy.

Yet another reason to major in something other than philosophy.

So they were arguing, see... and the one guy, see, he sez

“I like Freude, but I’m really Junge at heart....”

and then the other guy, see, he sez, right before he pulled the trigger he sez

“We just Kant come to an agreement here...”

Badda bing...

The discussion deteriorated into a fistfight and one participant pulled out a small nonlethal pistol and fired repeatedly.
