.@BYUfan @imbou not saying it is how it SHOULD be, but how it is is Both. Three phases: in reply to BYUfan 17:02:13
.@BYUfan @imbou Ph 1, Critical subset starts believing something. Depending on power of subgroup could be 10% to 90% of pop. Laws passed. in reply to BYUfan 17:07:34
.@BYUfan @imbou Oops. Dentist ready for me. I will have to finish my thoughts later. Fillings are fun and happy things, right? 17:08:27
RT @imbou: @abulsme @BYUfan Have them just rip out the teeth. 17:18:10
.@imbou @BYUfan Waiting for anesthetics to kick in now. Woo! in reply to imbou 17:21:44
.@BYUfan @imbou Phase 2, law is used to force behavior of those who disagree, mold views of next generations. This process takes decades. in reply to BYUfan 17:23:10
.@BYUfan @imbou Doc back. More later. in reply to BYUfan 17:24:44
RT @BYUfan: @abulsme @imbou Go ahead and keep tweeting under anesthesia. It should be interesting. :-D 17:56:35
.@BYUfan @imbou Only local. Done now. Can’t feel my face. in reply to BYUfan 17:57:29
.@BYUfan @imbou Done for today I should say. They did the right side. Left side scheduled for Thursday. in reply to BYUfan 17:58:57
.@BYUfan @imbou Phase 3. Those who disagree change their minds, die off, become small minority. Law: How could it possibly be any other way? in reply to BYUfan 18:00:36
.@BYUfan @imbou Society (but not necessarily majority) initiates the law changes, but then there is a feedback loop that transforms society. in reply to BYUfan 18:02:03
RT @BYUfan: .@imbou @abulsme Y'all need to see Blackfish. It's on Netflix instant. http://t.co/g5VrKsHxa6 18:02:12
.@BYUfan @imbou I was of course thinking about that movie when I made my comments. Already on my very long list if movies to see someday. in reply to BYUfan 18:03:13
RT @BYUfan: @abulsme @imbou I agree with phases, but 1 and 2 are so close, laws are unnecessary in all but extreme cases. 18:19:05
.@BYUfan @imbou Think вЂњnecessaryвЂќ depends on perceived urgency. With law, some effects immediate. May accelerate attitude changes too. in reply to BYUfan 18:23:13
.@BYUfan @imbou Now, personally, I think it is almost always better for change to happen slowly and naturally through persuasion. in reply to BYUfan 18:24:01
.@BYUfan @imbou But many times slow and gradual can be way too slow, especially for people getting screwed by the status quo. in reply to BYUfan 18:25:56
RT @imbou: @BYUfan @abulsme but our country has lived the extreme which is why we have the laws in the books 18:26:21

For awhile over the weekend I was starting to despair as everything I was reading was of the we need to be aggressive type. 20:38:36
Heartened to see today a variety of вЂњcalmer headsвЂќ writing and explaining the other side. 20:39:38
They took longer to get their stuff out there though. Only now am I really starting to see larger volumes from the вЂњhey, stay calmвЂќ side. 20:41:16
Maybe they, I dunno, just spent some time looking at the situation and thinking through it instead of just reacting reflexively. 20:41:27
