Mean spirits.

I try to steer clear of mean-spirited people. Sensing that they are mentally ill. And capable of doing harm.To their friends and associates. And to total strangers, too. That's why I distrust many politicians. So many of 'em are opposed to the common good. They are out to benefit the few. Special interests. Often at the expense of the many. They take delight in this. Because of their mean spirits. They find joy and fulfillment in hurting people. Especially those they dislike. And they are enamored with political power. Often used to bully their adversaries. --Jim Broede
