Groupthink, a term coined by social psychologist Irving Janis (1972), occurs when a group makes faulty decisions because group pressures lead to a deterioration of “mental efficiency, reality testing, and moral judgment”
or more recently coined politically correct.

Re: South Dakota Added to California State Travel Ban

I was under the impression that travel bans were intolerant and bigoted policies that serve no purpose beyond hurting people who are simply trying to live peaceful lives as Americans.

Based on California's actions, I may have to rethink my understanding of whether travel bans are good or bad.

I liked the original version (see the "Curious Case of Benjamin Button").

I going throw this thread into drift, but I apparently lived 2008 under a rock, as I was totally ignorant of "Curious Case of Benjamin Button". I really missed something here.

There are those who believe it would be better if it were not so. There are those who disagree.

Re: South Dakota Added to California State Travel Ban

So someone is being intolerant in their insistence of other's tolerance. Males sense.

These are your words,.....if you word it this way,it's nonsense,so,guess your right.Care to re-word this so it makes sense?.And furthermore ,don't think I don't understand the meaning of the word "innuendo",as obviously you must.

I was looking for a post and going back through these old posts, came across this old post. Looking at it again (now) I realize what Prairehass was saying, and it makes perfect sense. I was wrong in responding the way I did and apologize if he ever sees this. I don't know why I was so rude...suffer from CRS...Can't Remember Sh**).But, evidently, I took his post completely wrong. Just thought a late apology is better than never correcting myself. Have a good day.

Re: South Dakota Added to California State Travel Ban

Adoption providers (according to the article) in SD among other states are allowed by those states' laws to take "sincerely held religious beliefs" into account when placing children to be adopted. Not REQUIRED to do so. ALLOWED to do so.

In response (in part) to the adoption of this obviously extreme position, the State of California now FORBIDS state travel to states representing nearly 20% of the US population.

Conclusions are left as an exercise for the reader.

Re: South Dakota Added to California State Travel Ban

Exactly. For some reason, a small group of intolerant state legislators like to throw South Dakota into one unnecessary mess after another.

Likewise for California legislators,unfortunately ,neither State will change their political stance,so we have travel bans instead....insistence that everyone must think the same, in some peoples mind ,is the root of the problem,they have no respect for nor tolerance for a free and individual and sometimes different thought process..all kinds of intolerance out their,and it's not just the people of faith who exhibit intolerance,as some would insist upon.

Re: South Dakota Added to California State Travel Ban

If the people from all of the states on the travel ban decided to not vacation in California. I have a fealing it would hurt them more then us.

And we stop all the California cars at the Wyoming border, who had Mt. Rushmore on their itinerary! We turn them around and head them back to where-ever they came from. That makes sense.
