Is this a reasonable reaction to getting your school of thought mocked?
>MOSCOW (Reuters) - An argument over the theories of 18th century philosopher Immanuel Kant ended in a man being shot in a grocery store in southern Russia.
>RIA news agency quoted police in the city of Rostov-on-Don as saying a fight broke out between two men as they argued over Kant, the German author of "Critique of Pure Reason", without giving details of their debate.
>"In the course of the fight, the suspect took out a pistol and fired several shots at his opponent," it said, adding that one man was detained and the victim was taken to hospital. His life was not in danger.

Kill to defend my favorite author? I don't even buy his books! I get them all through Anna's Archives.

You know the more I see and hear about Russia the more I think Spengler might be right about it.

Why wasn't romanticism more powerful in Russia if they're all like this

The Russians were jealous of Western Europe's wealth and saw Communism as a way to industrialize and catch up.

Handguns are mostly banned in Russia, so it probably was a rubber-bullet traumatic pistol. Maybe he wanted to tickle the other guy to death.
