Weaponizing Death
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness Recently there has been a spate of horrific murders. The killers, whether committing mass shootings or single homicides, are hard to stereotype.

VDH UltraThe Unappreciated Rustics. Part One. Historians in a Motor Shop
Victor Davis Hanson Since antiquity farmers have been characterized as boorish (Greek agros, “farm/field,” English “agrarian”; Latin rus, “countryside,” English “rustic”), as if nature coarsened those who worked with it.
