[blogs.ScientificAmerican] Research suggests it's largely because they're anxious about their ability to protect their families, insecure about their place in the job market and beset by racial fears.

| #16 Well, I'm not stockpiling, I already have too many (my definition, not the anti-gun folks) But with the MSM suggesting to non-whites that they may be allowed to do what they will with me with no repercussions, well, I guess too much is not enough... |

| #13 I canceled in the early 1980s when a British Lord of the Sky Is Falling persuasion bought Scientific American. He should have replaced American with British and added Pseudo- in front of "Scientific". Pseudo-Scientific British |

| #12 As a teenager I remember going to the stacks and reading the thick older Scientific American issues. Many (most...) of the articles were beyond me but it was fascinating to see science in all its forms... A decade ago on a newstand I saw the current thin, slick paper version. *Hmmpf* Pop-Sci pablum about crashing black holes and an essay about Global Warming. Tragic. |

| #11 Off the pile (didn't wanna diss SH in hora ultima, like)... "Let's pause for a moment of science: In whom shall we place our reliance? Who'll fill the black hole That He's left in our soul, And never be lenient With facts inconvenient? Who'll shepherd nerds' words towards compliance, And bully deniers to silence?" |

| #10 Well, when the Hurricane warnings are issued, people stock up on key provisions. When people see a civil war coming, they just acquire the appropriate materials to carry them over as well. |

| #9 I canceled my subscription to Scientific American long ago. If I want political crap, I can watch ESPN. Just like child molesters who like to hide wearing the frock, political propagandist can't resist the cover of science. |

| #6 Amen, Joe. SA was an interesting and informative magazine until it was taken over for SJW activist propaganda and climate change agitprop - about 35 years ago |

| #1 But no law can address the absence of meaning and purpose that many white men appear to feel, which they might be able to gain through social connection to people who never expected to have the economic security and social power that white men once enjoyed. "The government cannot give you anything, that it has not already taken away from someone else." ~ Churchill (a paraphrase, I believe) |
