Frowny Beard arms.

Beards have been getting a bad rap. It's true they have been in the public eye more than usual of late featuring in anything from homemade terrorcasts to fancy magic movies with genius owls and flying brooms . The downside is beards have been attached to wicked men who intend to bring down the west for the whore of civilisations or something along those lines. (clearly they have not had the joyful experience of choice that a food court can provide, the choice is wonderful and can create panic and doom)

Indeed beards have been associated with terror. Planes in buildings and angry guttural whispering for Allah do not like facial grooming to involving shaving or cutting of hair on the chin. Let's be honest here people really do associate ways of thinking with what you look like. Hippies get pinned as free thinkers who want to change the world into a green place. While the truth may be that people who wear lots of natural fibres along with shaggy manes are considered hippies. They are most likely bang up for fire twirling, trance and beans while changing the world might be in the same position as most compassion filled merchant bankers. The old saying about judging books by their covers seems to ring true. If you give people a chance they will usually surprise you (lets hope pleasantly). We should know by now our preconceived notions of reality are poorly put together at the best of times.

So people do not always appear as they are. Thanks for the powerful wisdom laser in my eye Bart but what are you really getting at?

Well what I am really getting at boils down to beards once again. The beard has been a noble addition to faces since enough hair was lost off of them that the addition of hair was with noting and naming. Yes thats right since we were not monkeys we have grown beards to be rad.

Kings, Wizards and Santa Claus are a few of the great champions of beards and my what a great gang to look up to and hope to be like one day. Caring, magical, benevolent and radical in the face. No wonder some ladies cultivate a moustache. It is just a wonderful thing.

It makes me wonder if those with terror on their minds are getting at with beards. Do they want to be the wizards. Are they angry at the West for holding them back in becoming old fashion Kings or is there something about the USA's foreign policy and the restriction of wizardry?

I think it is a shame that a few dudes can bring such a wonderful and ancient facial code down.
Let the beard roam free and do not judge it. Its a great creature and should be allowed to hide chins as it sees fit.

Lets remember all the good things beards did.
