With the political debate these days so divisive, it seems like it might be better to go one way or the other. Now I know the immediate reaction to this idea is to reject it out of hand, but before you do, please consider:

LEFT WINGERS
The camps could be set up in a way to make them fun with group singalongs and communal meals. Of course, extensive empathy training would be emphasized as would arts education and critical thinking. The music of John Lennon would likely form the core of the process.

RIGHT WINGERS:
The camps could absolutely be privately operated, (possibly by Blackwater,) and those interred would not have to be chosen by the government but rather by right-thinking citizens like yourself. Those deemed "ineducable" could of course be "retired", and corners could certainly be cut in that determination process.

No because even if you did it likely wouldn't change peoples mind but it would cause even more problems. Not worth it.

I'm neither left nor right. I am a very opinionated person. I'll still defend the rights of the guy that stands up and screams the opposite of what I believe.

Unless that person is just consistently spouting absolute crap, not backing it up, and just doing it to stir up trouble. That person should be punched in the face.

In other words, i.e. [insert either "Republicans" or "Democrats"]

Nah. I'm fine with Republicans and Democrats - they're both equally full of shit. It's the conspiracy theorists that drive me fucking batty.

Only if my camp gets to eat jello, take a nap and travel spiritually to a spaceship hidden in the tail of a comet.

Who was it that said, "I may not agree with what you're saying, but I will fight to the death for your right to say it"?

Surely you're not referring to our friend WTC7, are you? ;)

No, I was referring to another crazy person here.

Guess again!

Well, that really narrows it down. You want me to find a specific wacko in the loony bin, but my only clue is that he's crazy? I'd like to buy a vowel.

Or did it? (Say what you want about Pol Pot—he was a guy who knew how to get things done.)

One of you is correct.

Now this game needs to end, lest I be sent on an enforced holiday.
