Jim Goad on the YouTube shooting: ‘Most hardcore vegetarians are far crazier than most hardcore ‘racists.”

I don’t recall any European traditionalists stalking and terrorizing the pig-haulers in England whose trucks get attacked and whose children are threatened with abduction and torture. I’ve never met a WWII obsessive who howls about the “billions murdered” by “carnists.” I don’t recall hearing about any reader of The Bell Curve sending letter bombs to government officials. (…)

At least in this case, it was not a gun problem. Neither was it an Islamic problem. And despite the fact that Aghdam was clearly cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs, is was not even a mental-health problem. It was a simple case of misplaced priorities. When you upset the evolutionary order and place animals above humans, you wind up doing stupid things like this.
