 Dumb people, when they don't have all the facts, they make shit up to fill in the gaps. And then they forget that they made it up, they believe it as if it was true, never re-evaluating why they believe what they beileve, never checking to see if that actually is the correct explanation, never reevaluating the parsimony of it all.

Piers Morgan is a good example.
