So it’s not surprising that three out of four Americans say they feel more fearful today then they did twenty years ago. But are we living in exceptionally dangerous times? In The Culture of Fear, sociologist Barry Glassner demonstrates that it is our perception of danger that has increased, not the actual level of risk. Glassner exposes the people and organizations that manipulate our perceptions and profit from our fears, including advocacy groups that raise money by exaggerating the prevalence of particular diseases and politicians who win elections by heightening concerns about crime, drug use, and terrorism. In this new edition of a classic book—more relevant now than when it was first published; Glassner exposes the price we pay for social panic.

He just focuses on "illegal immigrants taking our jobs" (uh, the ones he doesn't and can't have, so ???), terrorism & hating Hillary. So, I need this to make a better point of showing him he isn't actually what he thinks he is.
