Dave Acton Sweigert recently entered the playing field. He promptly told us his brother George Webb had serious mental problems:
Dave Sweigert comes clean on his brother's metal problems
So being the objective person I am I listened to Dave talk about his brother George. My first reaction was that Dave and George Sweigert have a serious case of sibling rivalry going on and it's been going full bore for 50+ years. Dave is a year older and from what I can tell less successful. George played Division 1 Basketball and Dave didn't. George banged Dave's wife. George is better looking than Dave and more personable.
So it's very apparent what's going on between the two of them, they don't like each other. No big deal, classic family dynamic between brothers that plays out millions of times.
Then today I just listed to Dave laughing about how George is now officially a "pop-up target" on a shooting range.
O_O
"George Webb pop-up target."
Did you hear that hearty laugh? I got chills. You don't laugh at the thought of your brother being shot and killed. I wouldn't say it's borderline psychotic but it's oozing hatred and jealousy. That laugh was fucked up. The more I hear Dave talk about his brother the worse my impression of him gets.
To the mods if you delete this and leave equineluvr's post up here then something is seriously wrong here.
I'm going to need an explanation.

Dave sounded nuts to me the moment I heard him. He also predicts George will commit suicide soon. Truly bizarre and unstable behavior by Dave. Why is he even getting involved at all. Loony toons.

Yes, it's pretty clear who's "got issues" in that relationship. To be honest it's just sad as fuck.
And because I'm an over-educated Irishman I'm going to say there's an eerie parallel between George and Dave's lack of brotherly love with the greater division splitting this entire country down the middle right now.
George and Dave's "civil war" is about to get writ large all across this country and that scares the fuck out of me.
Why did I have to major in History. Fuck. I wish I didn't see this thing coming.

Nice parallel, i agree. And yep ignorance is bliss. I haven't enjoyed any of this. And you're worse off than me since you're seeing history patterns getting closer. Glad i don't know too much about history or my head might cave in.
