Yes, Greg, but who is the "they" implied in "their?"

I think it essential that we the people consciously cultivate our awareness of "We.". I often have difficulty remembering that, but make a conscious effort to be mindful. Making fun of ignorance does not educate. And most people who are conservative are not ignorant. They simply have a different perspective. I dare say that as many people who tend toward the Left are as ignorant as are people that tend toward the Right. (Again, whatever those two terms may mean.)   

None of us have a corner on the market called reality. Knee-jerk views are found across the spectrum.
