Huh? I didn't say anything disparaging about anyone who voted for either platform.
I didn't go there. I don't hate anyone, whether they vote similar to me or not.
But since you went there, I will respond. I took an oath to support and defend the constitution of the United States, against all enemies, both foreign and domestic. Socialism is voluntary Communism and is therefore diametrically opposed to the ideals set forth in said constitution.
The political "divide" in this country is because a certain segment of the country wants to force their viewpoint on everyone else. I am of the opinion that we all be free to do whatever we want as long as we are not endangering our fellow man.
I didn't create the divide, I didn't throw molotov cocktails at police, I didn't burn down buildings for perceived racial injustices, I didn't harass innocent people eating in a restaurant who believe different than I do, I didn't sucker punch elderly folks walking down the sidewalk, I didn't try to take over a city to establish my own Communist utopia, I didn't block traffic on interstates and main thoroughfares to impede normal everyday folks and soccer moms to intimidate them, I didn't pull people out of their cars and give them a beatdown, I didn't brandish firearms against innocent civilians.
I did none of the things that have driven the wedge deeper, but I will not be painted into a corner because I made a disparaging comment about the biggest idiot to make it to White House since Jimmy Carter.
I respect you Randy. I think you're a stand up guy. This is your house, therefore I will follow your rules.
My apologies to the forum for the political tangent.
