Should of Left It Up the Experts
Via Instapundit,
Even though he was not trained to be a historian, James O. Hall became the authority on Lincoln’s assassination. Who do these upstarts think they are? Without the formal training acquired from an advanced university degree they are not qualified to write and think about serious matters. This James Hall even wrote a book that at the time debunked the current expert theory on why Abraham Lincoln was assassinated. This is a very dangerous precedent and it sends the wrong message. Only experts should be entrusted with the power to debunk false ideas, they have the proper training to insure nobody gets hurt when the debunking occurs.
