I guess it’s time to drag out H.L. Mencken’s quote once again:

“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.”
H. L. Mencken
US editor (1880 - 1956)

Dude. Wild turkeys can fly. The ones in west Texas sure used to look like they were flying.
