What's the point of knowing you are better than everybody else if you don't let everybody else know too?

I did a search for Leo Kottke to make sure that a song was not previously posted.

You see folks,
this is what I'm surrounded by in the greater Seattle area. "Oh, you poor uneducated, country bumpkin and your antiquated ways."
My own girlfriend (don't any of you say a word) even wrote off my gun totin' ways as just some by-product of PTSD.
She later told me that the Bill of Rights was just "some guy's" ideas on what rights were...
this is the pervasive viewpoint up here. It makes mah head numb...
Seattle is a lost cause.
