There is absolutely nothing you can do or say to change the minds of this type of fanatic. And they exist everywhere, in every political party, in every religion, in every country. There is always, and will always be, a certain type of person who knows beyond any doubt that his point of view is the only right one. Beating him over the head with the truth or with facts only makes him condemn you for your brutality. This is the kind of person who will don a white sheet and kidnap, torture and kill innocent people simply because of their color. This is the kind of person who will kill dozens of innocent people simply because they happen to work at an abortion clinic. This is the kind of person who flies planes loaded with civilians into buildings. Whether you label them as terrorists, fanatics, patriots or "dittoheads," their hatred and anger towards anything which opposes them marks them as ignorant and dangerous.
