What is Hanson's Law?
1.
Hanson's Law- As the result of seemingly endless political chat room and message board flame wars, basic human social decorum dictates that once a person uses the word(s); “libs”, "liberal" or "liberals", they immediately establish their political bias, polarize their audience and lose all credibility.
At this point, Hanson’s Law has been invoked and offender’s statements are reduced to the level of worthless political propaganda.
Case 1 – “You believe that because you’re a liberal.”
Hanson’s law has been invoked.
Case 2 – “Why do liberals hate America?”
Hanson’s law has been invoked.
