“”””It is not wise to kick a hornet’s nest.””””

You can’t ignore the termites, sure next year it will be fire ants or mosquitos, but it is called life, nothing stays the same but you fight today so that you can be here tomorrow, the new challenges and new bad guys will always arise, they are part of life.

Sure the guy kicking in your door isn’t the last guy that will be kicking in doors, but you should deal with this one anyway or else you will be over and he will have your house.

I understand your premise. But this time it might be the last for everyone period. I’m not in a hurry to purposely help make that end come about without good reason. My Grandchildren do not deserve to suffer for our lack of prudence and impatience. We are being selfish, we are acting on selfish emotion and not thinking of how the true cause and effect will destroy them.

The NeoCon conceit: roaming the earth looking for monsters to slay

From Proverbs 26:

Like one who grabs a stray dog by the ears
is someone who rushes into a quarrel not their own.
