DUmmies often roll out the "fear" canard in a cheap attempt to de-legitimize their opponents.
If you feel revulsion towards homosexuality, then you are "homophobic". You have an irrational fear of queers. If you are against illegal immigration, you are "xenophobic". You have an irrational fear of those different than you. One that constantly comes into play in their Guns forum is that if you carry a weapon, you are hopelessly paranoid and a coward. Don't like Socialism? Then you "fear" progress.
I personally don't know a single conservative who fears for their own safety when it comes to terrorism. The difference in us and moonbats though, lies in the fact that we learn from history. Existence is what it is, not what you wish it to be. There's a reason the military and civilian first-responders train for worst-case scenarios, and it ain't because they just love to watch people run around like their hair's on fire.
Moonbats scoff at such ideas because they care more about ideals than people, and there's no end to the number they're willing to sacrifice in pursuit of those ideals. Whereas a good general would retreat his troops in the face of overwhelming odds to fight another day, DUmmies would gladly send every last one of theirs into the meat grinder just to prove a point. Of course, they'd never go in. Liberals prefer to lead from the rear.
