No Time for Civility

"The conservative movement and the Republicans are more to blame than the left for the state of the nation due to their past and current passivity, pessimism, and obsession with civility," writes Steve McCann at American Thinker.
Or put it like this: When a stranger enters your home at night and threatens wife, children, life, and limb, the loving thing to do (and the truly civil thing to do) is to kick him out with such force that he never tries that stupidity and immorality ever again -- whether against you, your family, or anyone else. Overcoming evil with good is true civility.
