I don't think he realizes how totally insane liberals really are. I've known some for fifty years that despite all the proof in the world that their world view is irrational still won't give it up. What he fails to understand is that their ego is tied up in their identity as a liberal. They actually believe they are more intelligent (on any given subject) than conservatives.
I'll give you a classic example. My Dad fought in the Pacific theater during WW2. I have all his combat medals. Not only did he know how to use firearms -- but he also used the big guns on the battle cruiser. So I think it's fair to say he had some familiarity with weapons.
This liberal I knew for decades (and considered a friend up until that fateful day) referred to my dad as a "gun nut" when I casually mentioned he owned a handgun for self protection. This man proceeded to tell me my dad knew nothing about guns and shouldn't be allowed to own one. I responded, "Are you serious? Where do you think all his combat medals came from?"
And I kid you not -- he proceeded to tell me that my father who was a veteran knew less about guns than he did. You see -- he was a "reenactor" who drilled with a toy gun to participate in recreated fake battles. And to his mind that was a greater qualification than an actual combat veteran.
That was the LAST time I ever spoke to him because I was so highly offended that he put so little value on my dad's military service.
But this goes to show you how crazy they are. Don't fall into the trap of thinking you're going to change their minds about anything. They think we are stupid. And it doesn't matter how many degrees we have, or whatever qualifactions we have that make us successful in our chosen fields. Their egos will not allow them to see anything but their own point of view even if that point of view is irrational.
