Not sure.  At least then, they gave a shit enough to SHOOT you.  Now they just yawn and have Fox News have a go at you.  Remember Occupy Wall Street?  Neither do I.

They just don't appreciate the innate good sense and benevolence that we offer.  It's very sad.

Sometimes it even hurts when we smile.
