Comedy is subjective, and I don’t find him funny. What do you want to debate next, what the best song or color is?

I was responding to your comment that Chris Rock “is speaking the truth” and that some people “can’t handle the truth.”

Well, the truth is that for our government to mandate charging $5000 for a bullet would be unconstitutional. You may find the idea comical, sure, but it isn’t the “truth.”

That is what I was responding to. And the danger in his statements? He gives mindless voters ideas. Not unlike Jonathan Stuart Leibowitz of the Daily Show.

Color.
And the answer is, of course, Red.
Why red? Red is the color of blood — which is usually what anything of lasting value is paid with — and the linkage to the symbolic-attributes of blood:
— Strength
— Passion
— Courage {as in spilling blood}
— Life! {Life is in the blood}

Before you call me Communist, consider how many good things are commandeered and twisted to evil purposes:
- Language. It is good to be able to convey ideas; yet this gets twisted around, especially in the form of ‘political correctness.’
- Free Will, the freedom of choice, & the right to choose: all part of the same GREAT idea; horribly misapplied in the Abortion debate (another language-twisting).

Of course I’m also saying “Red” because it is my favorite color.
;)
