A lot of these militia types have military training, and they're also holed up in a building.

While they're certainly dangerous, I would agree that they probably by-and-large lack the discipline and hardiness of your typical solider. Even those among them that have real training will be inevitably pulled down by the probably greater population of armed wannabees.

Koch: *moans over lack of influence*Me: No, you should have ZERO influence.

Also, O'Malley is in danger of missing out on the next democratic debate: http://www.politico.com/story/2016/01/martin-omalley-could-miss-democratic-debate-217500 He should drop out to give Sanders an edge anyway.

Clearly Koch should hire O'Malley to run as the Koch candidate for the democratic party.  Everyone will win.

Koch then went on to attack Cruz’s proposal to carpet-bomb ISIL. “I’ve studied revolutionaries a lot,” he said. “Mao said that the people are the sea in which the revolutionary swims. Not that we don’t need to defend ourselves and have better intelligence and all that, but how do we create an unfriendly sea for the terrorists in the Muslim communities? We haven’t done a good job of that.”

Koch said that there are 1.6 billion Muslims worldwide and asked, what “are we going to do: go bomb each one of them?”

> Hey guys, you know carpet-bombing kills indiscriminately, right? Are you trying to turn more people into terrorists or...?

Or, CRUZ HAS PLAN TO INCREASE TERRORIST THREAT TO AMERICA BY ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE

If most people are good or neutral, doesn't that mean that being "evil," having a highly deviant set of morals and values, is mentally atypical and thus not sane?
...
Anyway, I don't like them either.

Based at least upon the bias of wishing to declare myself sane, I would say that there is a difference between being mentally atypical and mentally ill.

Well, according to Google insanity is being "in a state of mind that prevents normal perception, behavior, or social interaction."  Won't someone with an abnormal set of morals have differences in all 3 areas?
