Ted Nugent

I have been watching the Ted Nugent affair with interest. His more or less open threats of violence against the Obama family are, indeed, distressing. Yet, on some level, I am not disturbed by the predictably inane statements of a celebrity who appears both daft and decadent. What is, however, genuinely terrifying is something else. To wit, that when he spoke, his audience applauded.

Once again, I repeat my plaintive question: how have we come to this?
