Also called scare tactic. This is a strategy that various governments and news media uses in order to scare you into agreeing with their policies or points of view that usually involves some kind of protection or banning something which thus enacts more and more useless laws. This also helps keep the population under control as a scared population is easier to control and is more trusting of the government.
They usually fear monger by exaggerating the story or accounting of the events by using massive hyperboles, speak of the object from a negative standpoint and never from a neutral standpoint, use certain rhetorical words such as "dangerous", "lethal", "contagious", or "aggressive" and use only partial truth or no truth at all (aka lies). Usually true journalism and research is completely non-existent when using fear mongering techniques. When the story or segments airs on TV, they also use menacing or disturbing music to further bring out a fearful mood out of the viewers.

A city that is located in the Los Angeles County part of southern California and is also one of the worst places to inhabit. There are a lot of crazy people in the city and most of the people are either very culturally relativist or politically correct or are rednecks that don't normally use logic.
The politically correct ones will keep spouting bullshit such as how all views are equal and how "it's their culture" or "it depends on the individual" which is stupifying at best. They usually will accept every messed up thing about a different culture even if the culture does things such as infanticide or promotes racism.
The rednecks here are stupid as hell considering how they don't know what the public domain is and how they think that John Milton should be sued for using religious characters in his stories.

Pasadena is a city in southern California that is filled with nothing but either politically correct morons that are lacking in IQ and logic or dumb rednecks with no brain.

The dumb theory that colleges teaches you that states that all views (or points of views) are equally valid. Pretty much this means that all standpoints, opinions and such are all valid. Pretty much the views of a racist, a neo-Nazi and the such are all just as valid as someone else. But, it isn't hard to take down these people that expresses this theory by just saying:
"Is it true that there's no such thing as truth?"
"Is it true that there's no such thing as truth?"
Political correctness is a very dumb theory that many colleges teach you in order to dumb you down and lower your IQ.
