Forgive my rage

[Traildogbob]

My daughter, age 31 and all I have, we lost her mom to cancer when she was 10, is now extremely sick from Covid. She is an ICU nurse, and was attacked by a male rabid denier on in her unit while trying to help him. She was in full PPE and still got the virus from him. He forcefully punched her in the breast. And spewed while shouting.
7 days in and got positive test Tuesday.
I have no patience left. I served this country for 8 years and now the enemy is right here, egged on by Trump and Fox News. Attacking my country, and now attacking my daughter just trying to give medical help.
I am fighting like hell to not take my skills, a special set of skills, gubment paid for skills to go honor my oath.
I hate to see the flag, I hate the chanting USA, I hate the GOP. Never will I salute, take my hat off, or honor that God damned song until justice and prison for all these treasonous asses are accomplished. Especially congress, Trump and his minions.
If I lose her, this soldier will go back to soldiering.
This snowflake is now boiling water and about to scald some brain dead Trump zombies.
And Comey thinks Biden should pardon Trump for unity😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬.
Benghazi, who ordered the stand done while watching the attack that killed for? Those attackers did not shit and smear it all the building. Our home grown white terrorists did just that in our capital. In GODS name, Pillow Guy! Fuck GOP. Fuck every damn one of them. Jail that 5 foot white Glock Qanon Princess that assisted the attack.
Ok, I am done for now. Thanks for allowing steam from this boiling pot to rise and cool.

[BSdetect]

1. Rage, rage against the lying of the right.

[Sucha NastyWoman]

101. A perfect retort

[Raster]

132. +1

Many of us, and most without those skills, are at the same place.

I don't care anymore about tRump* voters, their lies, their stupidity, THEIR FUCKING INSURRECTION and attempt to overthrow the United States government. I have a sibling deep in the tRump* cult. I don't care.

I have other immediate family members on the Covid front lines and I am terrified for them.

Whenever I encounter a #Maskhole, it is all I can do to refrain/restrain myself. Be a dumb, science-denying fool all you like, but you have NO RIGHT to hurt others.

Best to you and good, healing vibes to your daughter.

[madaboutharry]

2. I hope your daughter recovers quickly.

Don't apologize for being angry. This nation has been abused by a lack of leadership.

Peace and hugs.

[BComplex]

6. And propaganda through hate radio and fox/nmax/oann.

It's the propaganda and lies that have to stop. Twitter and FB are FINALLY doing a small part after being the main platforms on social media, but the disease has metastasized.

[Tommymac]

17. For Covid - it is also the 'Christian' networks spewing dangerous lies.

Masks don't work.

The charlatans are taking much more then money from fools - they are contributing to the spread of a deadly disease.

[BComplex]

34. True that. When is the left going to finally figure out how to take on all the lying groups?

Evangelicals
School Boards that keep kids from learning critical thinking skills and social studies/civics

Conservatives have really screwed this country.

[Permanut]

102. Right on, Tommymac..

Just today a group of "christians" on Bible thumper talk radio decided to inform us that even though they may not approve of what happened at the capitol last week, they are absolutely positive that their dear leader had nothing to do with it.

Bob Dutko
John Stonestreet
John Rush
Roger Marsh

Still drinking koolaid by the gallon. Not sure if Jesus would approve.

[Evolve Dammit]

31. Indeed

[soldierant]

77. Bothe quicklly and fully.

No apology necessary.

[Bradshaw3]

3. Your rage is definitely justified

They just keep hurting people and our country because of their hatred and unfounded anger, spurred on by media and scumbag pols. Now they have hurt your loved one. I feel that kind of anger most days, without anywhere near the kind of justification you have. However you don't want to go to jail, so please reach out to someone who can listen. You can rant anytime on here. You and your daughter have served their country and are appreciated.

[Traildogbob]

9. Thank you

I need to be free to protect her as long as I am alive. And the release of steam keeps this boiler from exploding. 3 brothers and a dad, all trumpers and “Christians”. No reaching out to that. My oldest brother sent me 5 praying hands images. No text, I told him Tots and Pears are useless. Especially if you are praying to Pillow Guys God, or Paula Whites God.
So thank you fine people here on Du for being here to reach out to.
Go out to get food about 3 weeks apart. I stay apart, wash hands and proudly wear my “Shut the F**k up Donny” mask from the Stephanie Miller Show. I wear my old Special Ops Navy hat, with glaring angry eyes, no one says anything for some reason. Thanks for you kind response. She has pre existing lung issues as her mom did, so we are on edge. Not self inflicted. Genetics.

[Evolve Dammit]

33. Hope she's going to be OK. Your rage is justified. We have identified the enemy within. nt

[Aristus]

4. Thank you for sharing this with all of us, Traildogbob.

I hope your daughter will get well soon, and have no more of those monsters to put her at risk.

I also hope you will continue to confide in us here at DU. We can offer you a place to vent and think things through.

I'm very grateful that you haven't acted on your highly-justified anger. You are living proof that we are better than they are.

This fellow vet says "Keep on keeping on..."

[RANDYWILDMAN]

7. No Unity for Peace

cause they are never gonna let it go !

Only 10 voted for impeachment in the house yesterday about 150 reps voted for the BIG LIE last week,

When they all give up the lie and yell at their supporters to stand down and go away, then and only should we work with them, MAYBE!!



Sorry about your Daughter

[AllaN01Bear]

8. good on you.:) havent said the pledge or sang the national anthem for years .

and i wont untill all of these traitors are in jail , executed and or sent to gitmo. we need to apolojise to the blacks etc.

[Freedomofspeech]

10. I hope your daughter recovers quickly.

What a horrifying story how she was attacked. You have earned your rage! I have refused to say the pledge of allegiance for years...I too hate to see the flag and hear that stupid USA chant.

[Traildogbob]

12. I love

The National Women’s Soccer Team. And Since 2016 when trump scum started chanting, I get sick seeing it while watching those amazing ladies. And if Olympics happen amid Covid, we will have to endure that and all the red white and blue garb wearing stars and strips. Now, to me that brings up trumpism. The world may ban our ignorant Covid asses from participating.

[Freedomofspeech]

15. I refused to display the flags during the Bush and trump years.

I would put it out on occasion during President Obama's years but I hhave never been a big flag waver.

[NNadir]

11. Without Comey's pernicious interference we wouldn't be...

...discussing how to treat a criminal in the White House.

Hundreds of thousands of dead Americans would still be alive.

He has the credibility of a turnip, not that I wish to denigrate turnips with the comparison.

I'm sure all of us hope for daughter's complete recovery.

[Traildogbob]

13. ❤️

[Cozmo]

40. DITTO!

All the best to Traildogbob and your family.

[Livbaker]

14. This story makes me so sad. And angry.

I sincerely hope your daughter recovers quickly.
And I sincerely hope Dump and his minions rot in prison for encouraging such dangerous response to a global pandemic. That should be criminal. And SO much more.

[Traildogbob]

16. And please

Everyone, do not have a sense of security with pretty cloth masks. She was in full PPE, N95 and Shield. I wear an N95 UNDER my “Shut The F**K Up Donny” mask.

[KS Toronado]

41. Yes, way to many single cheap masks being worn in public,

Been noticing more & more people on TV news wearing two masks, we should encourage everyone to do so.
Just said a prayer for your daughter......

[cyclonefence]

18. I not only forgive your rage

I share it.

Steam away, brother, steam away. We're right here with you.

[Traildogbob]

21. 🤜🤛🤜🏾🤛🏻🤜🏿🤛🏼🤜🏽🤛🏿

[In_The_Wind]

19. Best wishes for your daughter's full recovery.

Thanks for serving our country.

[BainsBane]

20. I'm so sorry

How horrible for you and your daughter. I can only imagine how difficult this must be for you.

[rickyhall]

22. I could see 1 lawsuit per Covid for Donnie, etc.

[TNNurse]

23. Your rage is justified. Hoping the best for your daughter.

I would understand if she left nursing after this. This is not one of the requirements of her job, to be attacked and infected. I know some will say he was not in his right mind. I understand that, but he was led into the dark place in his mind.

[Traildogbob]

26. SHE says that.

Got her moms passion and heart. Told her Nightingale would only take so much. She loves what she does, her undergrad was Psychology from Tennessee. She likes the REAL crazies.
As we all know, most nurses are brave hero’s. Except the ones like the ass that tried to destroy 500 Viles of Covid Vax. Nuts are everywhere. Even Navy Seals we’re in on attack. That really pisses me off.

[GopherGal]

116. IIRC, the "ass" in question

was not a nurse, but a pharmacist.

And apparently that *is* now past tense:
[link:https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/wisconsin-pharmacist-accused-spoiling-covid-19-vaccine-has-license-suspended-n1254295|]

[Traildogbob]

117. Correct

I misspoke, now I remember it was pharma.

[people]

24. Your daughter is a courageous wonderful person

You raised a wonderful person. She is a real bona fide hero. Sorry to hear what both of you are going through. Hopefully in a few weeks she will be well on the mend.

[colorado_ufo]

25. God bless you, your wonderful daughter, and you dear late wife.

If you jail that 5' Glock carrying traitor, send the key to me. I will bury it deep in the Colorado mountains where it will never be found! And I hope the jerk that injured your daughter gets arrested, also.

[Traildogbob]

28. Kinda hope

His Covid puts him in pain for life and too weak to hurt anybody ever.
Thank you for kind words.

[denvine]

27. I am so sorry for your daughter,

I hope she fully recovers soon. No need to ask forgiveness for your rage because you are fully justified. We are in the mist of dealing with what only can be described as an episode of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Instigated by the GOP and their King Turd, we have a mindless, ignorant and hate filled army or morons flexing their muscles and threatening our Democracy. There is definitely reason for rage. Truly wishing your daughter has a speedy recovery.

[LiberalLoner]

29. Oh God, I am so sorry. I hope your daughter will fully recover.

I am sending vibes, prayers, everything I have that she will get better.

I understand your rage and think it is completely appropriate.

[niyad]

30. Sending all the love and support and healing I can, for both of you. Rage as much as you need to,

your DU family is here for you.

There is so much wrong in our country right now, it is a wonder that any of us have any sanity left.i don't know if we can recover, but I know that we will do our damnedest to try.

Is the insane bio terrorist who attacked your daughter in custody? Charged with anything?

[dameatball]

32. Your rant strikes a chord with all of us. It helps explain why, as 45's departure is imminent, many

of us are experiencing equal parts joy, sadness and rage. Joy that at least the White House will be cleansed, but rage and sadness for what is left and where we are as a country....not to mention the extreme sadness that it didn't have to be this way.
I too have daughters, one a left leaning, exuberant, science teacher. If she experienced what your daughter did I would feel as you do. The thing is, that could happen tomorrow if some delusional student, parent or even co-worker goes off the rails.
We all hope your daughter has a quick recovery and will eventually see a return to "normalcy" during a long and happy lifetime. Many thanks to both of you for your service.

[DemUnleashed]

35. Can not fathom

I am so, so very sorry for what your daughter is going through. I can't imagine how you are dealing with this. I can not fathom what these a*#holes are doing to our country...I am livid!! I am hoping for the very best outcome for your dear daughter

[58Sunliner]

36. I am so sorry and hope your daughter makes it through with her health intact.

[Tech]

37. Stay angry. Allow yourself the anger. And use the anger.

I have one child, a daughter who is also 31. I know I would be at least as angry as you. I would be crushed.

I say rant away whenever you need to. Stay strong for you both.

[leighbythesea2]

86. In this

One daughter, age 31, club....
Can't contemplate my rage under same circumstance. No words.

[Nululu]

38. Hope she recovers quickly and fully nt

[SheltieLover]

39. So sorry to hear your daughter was attacked & is now very ill!

Your anger is absofuckingloutely justified & I am so glad you came to the community here to vent.

Was the maskhole pos charged legally for attacking her? Is she hospitalized?

I share every single sentiment you shared about these useless pieces of shit.

I know you are very angry & afraid for your daughter but, imho, the best thing you can do for her & yourself is to focus on sending her positive thoughts of healing.

Please keep us updated!

[Traildogbob]

45. She is at home

She got sick a few days after her 12 hour night shift. She got the test after 4 days of extreme sickness the day before her next shift. So we did not know he, who was positive, had infected her. Do not know what his status is and probably have to see what hospital will do after her return and if charges are brought. I just go over everyday and take meds and liquids or anything she can possibly eat, and leave it on her porch. We had to euthanize her precious best buddy little dog a month ago After cancer diagnosis. She just adopted two kittens to help from the heartbreaking loss, and those 2 little boys are loving her non stop. Other wise she would be alone in there.
Thank all of you soooo much. All these supportive and kind responses have helped me tremulously and I have shared all the love with her.

[SheltieLover]

58. So sorry to hear about her losing pup. That's rough!

Glad she has kitties and you to take her what she needs!

Yale is offering very popular Science of Well Being course free. It is very good stuff & can help you both. Perhaps take it at the same time & discuss?

Objective medical research has shown that journaling (James Pennebaker), reading positive material such as Chicken Soup for the Soul-type books significantly raises immune system. Guessing the Yale course would as well, but have not seen that written anywhere.

Here is link:

The 1st videos are available immediately upon completing a very brief, non-intrusive registration.

I post frequently about this freebie & numerous folks say it has really helped them!

[electric_blue68]

42. Your rage is totally understandable...

I'm SO sorry she, and you are enduring this. 😥

My hopes for your daughter on making a Full Recovery without any lingering effects, or later pop up conditions!

[Jon King]

43. I'm with you, its time to destroy Trumpism...

This is the time. Destroy everything Trump. Progressives control the swing states and demographic trends. We are 80% of the economy. Enough is enough. Get them all off social media, charge them, boycott everyone who supports them. You can either support America or Trump. Pick one and if you choose Trump, we will destroy you economically and criminally if you step over the line.

They have killed so many and almost destroyed the democracy.

[KS Toronado]

44. Any Doctor or Nurse who catches the virus should be entitled to the special treatments

that Walter Reed hospital gave to our #1 traitor who's destroying lives not saving them.

[Traildogbob]

48. Her first scheduled

Vaccine was due two days after sickness. That warp speed shit took this long for front line nurses to get Vax. Yet Pence and all GOP deniers got theirs a month ago.

[KS Toronado]

62. I know, the GOP deniers in my red state & county all jumped in the 1st round with healthcare workers

Fu@kers claim it's a hoax, no worse than regular flu, masks don't help, etc etc and then the repug politicians
jump in front of us older vets. Army 71-73 11B, need these @ssholes out of office.

[Traildogbob]

64. Hang in brother.

My VA in Asheville just cancelled my second shingles Vax Tuesday because and Vax within 2 weeks For Covid shit is not allowed. So that tells me maybe 2 weeks out, and now 65 and up are priorities. Hope your Vet Hospital is on it like ours.

[BobTheSubgenius]

46. No "forgiveness" needed for that righteous rant.

I think that, if anything, you were rather restrained, under the circumstances.

I really, really hope it doesn't come down to you feeling an overwhelming need for vengeance - however richly deserved - and you committing an act that would disappoint your daughter. Please.

[Traildogbob]

50. Promise!

She needs me out here, being a liberal Trump hater, I would actually face legal consequences.

[VladmireTrumpkins]

47. I hope they find arrest and send this clown to 20 to life !

[onecaliberal]

49. We share your rage. I am hoping and praying fervently that your precious comes through quickly.

It’s all so fucking ridiculous.

[Jay25]

51. Sorry about your daughter.

Your rage is understandable. Sending positivity and universal love/energy, prayers to you and your daughter. Hope she’s doing well soon.
Also, please continue to vent on DU, in order to keep your stress and BP down.

[crickets]

52. Vent all you like. You have every right to be angry.

I'm so sorry your daughter is sick and I hope she recovers soon.

[GentryDixon]

53. I'm sorry about your daughter. You have every reason to be outraged.

I'm thinking I saw her post on Twitter. So many of our caregivers are being abused by these rabid deniers. 😬

I hope she bounces back quickly. ❤️

[Paper Roses]

54. I am so upset for your situation. I worry about everyone now, including my daughter who is a Doctor.

She is now working in a large regional hospital with only Covid patients. Works from about 7AM to about 7 PM.
She has a family to worry about. Goes home, has a shower, a sandwich or soup and goes to bed. Off again in the AM to treat more patients.

Thankfully she has not met with the situation that your daughter has. I damn those who take the medical workers for granted. I have not seen my family since last March, that is how hard these people are working. Not only are they exhausted and subject to idiots, they can't even go anywhere. They are being cautious but so many others are not. I bet the no-maskers and other idiots will be demanding help because they are "entitled"!

My thoughts are with you and all other health care providers. We thank you and I wish your daughter well.

[Nevilledog]

55. ...

[wryter2000]

56. How is she?

Is she really sick, or will she be okay.

My God, what a hideous bastard that guy is. I'm so sorry. You deserve to feel this rage. I hope everything works out for your daughter. This is an abomination.

[Traildogbob]

61. Thank you

For kindness. Extremely exhausted, days of nausea, chest congestion, out of breath just to stand. Sleeping for 18-20 hours at a time. Body aches all over. Never lost smell or taste. And no real fever. So many have so many different symptoms. That is dangerous, I could not get her to get a test because some of the common symptoms were not exhibited. She HAD to get test before going back to hospital, so it was rushed for results. So we have about a week before we can feel a little confident she is recovering.
Again thank all of you so much. You guys here at DU rock. I was a late 60’s teenager musician before joining NAVY. So I know good Rock. You guys are ALL good Rock. My daughter thanks you. I call her and read these well wishes to her. We are best friends and all each other have. Families are warped and evil. All Christians.GOP style.

[Niagara]

57. Your rage is totally understandable.

We're here to help support each other and lift each other up, especially during difficult times like this.

I'm sending healing vibes and positive energy to you and your daughter. Here's hoping for her speedy recovery.

[Vivienne235729]

59. You have every right & reason to be raging. These people on the far R need to be brought to justice

and I truly feel in the next couple of years, we are going to see just that. As LE entities start to reign it in, we'll hopefully see a leveling of the insanity. That's what I am hoping and praying for anyways. Prayers for a speedy recovery for your daughter.

[Lithos]

60. Many well wishes to you and her

Please let us know how she does. Hopefully she'll be through this quickly with no lingering effects.

L-

[cp]

63. Understandable and righteous rage

We share your fury and pain. Glad you could vent here.

Please channel your energy into helping your daughter and your own self-care.
It wasn't clear if she is living alone; please do not hesitate to take her to hospital (Covid can worsen in very short times, as you know). Don't wait.

We will hold you and your daughter in our hearts. May she be well.
Keep us posted.

[Traildogbob]

66. Yes, alone

Too damn independent for a man in her way. I ruined her, never wanted a relationship after her mom passed, I wanted ti raise her without any distractions. Tried a few but they did not like my 100 percent attention on her. That was a tie breaker for me. So I learned to love my own freedom, with ability to focus on one thing, so she kinda followed my life style.
Plus, I can hike, explore all these mountain trails and no trails with my Black Lab, (number 5) without approval from a wife.
FREEDOM!!!😁

[llashram]

65. this

can anyone blame you? I don't.

[AirmensMom]

67. Nothing to forgive.

Your rage is righteous. I just hope your daughter improves. Best wishes to you both.

[Cha]

68. I'm so Sorry.. Best Healing Vibes

for your beautiful daughter.

And, TY for your Service

[blueinredohio]

69. I'm so sorry I hope your daughter recovers soon with no after effects.

I'm with you and hope they all get prosecuted. Someone, somewhere has to figure out a way to stop the lies from getting out there. Besides people hating and killing each other I believe its truly driving people crazy.

[UpInArms]

70. All of us are with you in spirit, traildogbob

Hang in there, so so sorry your daughter was unnecessarily exposed in such a dangerous job ...

I will offer all my strongest hopes for her full recovery

Am not certain that we will get past our anger for the horrors inflicted

Hugs hugs hugs

[Orange Buffoon]

71. This video may have some good suggestions to aid her recovery

Best wishes for complete recovery!

[alwaysinasnit]

72. Rage on as much as you need to. We are your digital family.

[seta1950]

73. You are so right

I hope your daughter recovers

[Skittles]

74. wishing you both well

may I ask, what happened with that guy, surely he was arrested?

[Lonestarblue]

75. Send all kinds of good wishes for your daughter's recovery.

I can understand your rage! Attacking someone who is selflessly trying to help you is the act of an idiot! I’m about to the point of saying that anyone who is in denial that they have Covid and gets angry toward their doctors and nurses should just be sent home without treatment. If they think its a hoax, they should don’t need treatment for something that doesn’t exist.

I still am furious every time I think about the attack on the Capitol last week, so I can well understand how much worse it would be to have an attack by a rabid wing nut on your daughter.

[karin_sj]

76. I'm so sorry, Traildogbob

I hope that your daughter recovers quickly and completely. It is unthinkable that this deranged, ignorant monster would go after her when she is only trying to help him. Try to keep calm for her and your sake. Everyone here at DU is here for you.

[Traildogbob]

78. To all

I Can not tell you how much every single response here today has lifted my soul, my spirits and positive hopes of recovery for my precious daughter, my lifeline. Thank every one of you. And you guys that direct messaged me with such passionate concern, forgive me for not figuring out how how direct back to you, a heart felt thank you. In college, we still were taught on electric typewriters. I have come a long way, self taught, but still hack around this digital forum.
Much love and wishes of good health and happiness to each of you.
Traildogbob
Your bother in arms.

[Karadeniz]

79. Is there anything you can do to make sure she's received all the special treatments out there? As an

ICU nurse, contaminated on duty, she should be getting every conceivable medical help available. I'm just sick that she encountered this nut case and got hurt. Your anger is completely understandable. And the rest of the family... what's wrong with people? We're always just a keyboard away!!!

[Traildogbob]

82. Love to you

We will seek out every available treatment. Unfortunately no gubment Helo transport or Trump/Christy/Gooliani treatment. I fully believe the hospital will go all in. Though a profit Corp hospital, just 3 months ago employees overwhelmingly voted to unionize. We have that suppprt.

[Karadeniz]

91. We're plugging for her...and you! My eyes are tearing up...and I'm not a crier because it doesn't

Help the problem much. But, years ago someone said that tears weren't usually sadness...frustration. That stuck with me. Now when I feel sad, I try to figure out what's frustrating me. In this case, what isn't frustrating! A psychopath president who was worse than useless in this crisis. If there was a step to be taken in the wrong direction, he took it. He left the states stranded. While he sabotaged everything, he was rescued daily by his enablers. Somewhere in the million things this cretin did to frustrate medicine, government, laws, decency, truth... somewhere is the frustration point that you can feel you can fight against. A sign in the yard. Joining the local Democratic party...
Strength in numbers. A letter to the editor... your letter to us was pretty darned effective!

Take care of yourself!!!!

[Traildogbob]

93. ❤️❤️❤️

[leighbythesea2]

80. Best wishes for your daughters full recovery

Traildogbob. & rant all you need here. Please don't do anything, as your daughter needs you, but it's understandable rage.

My best childhood friends (twins) are--1st is paramedic now swabbing people 8 hours day @ a clinic, and 2nd is ICU nurse. One told me they are experiencing "empathy fatigue " due to the quantity of a%*holes being abusive while "being helped". It enrages me to hear.
They wear all that protective gear too, but their younger sister, also ICU nurse, got covid. With all PPE in place, these HC workers are still risking their lives. Please keep us updated on your daughter.

[Traildogbob]

83. Promise

Please keep us informed on your family as well. We can’t end this nightmare behind bars, WE do not get Pardons and release like Rhittenhouse Murdering punk. One skill I also got in the military was restraint. I will use that. Thank you, means so much.

[leighbythesea2]

89. Will

The sis is a gym regular, no underlying health issues so that is a help.
Just alllll that gear, it really does give one pause. It's a reminder to stay home, stay the course.

[lambchopp59]

81. Let off steam all you want here, however I think it's way past time Fox Freaking Noise got their

collective rear ends suit right off the air for endangering health, safety, sanity and lives based on compound, stupid and greedy LIES. They've had a major hand in mesmerizing the RWNJ cult, in bringing on this incomparable calamity of "leadership".
We will have the majority in office to make some sort of good law in truth in media that has had these deadly consequences, thank you Raygunites for repealing the Fairness Doctrine that started the whole nauseating division in the country. I'm not certain the Gipper himself would believe how far off the rails it's gone.

[jaxexpat]

84. "Thanks for allowing steam from this boiling pot to rise and cool."

Appreciate the "condensed " version.

Distilling the outrage and saving the righteous heart.

[Traildogbob]

85. ❤️❤️❤️✌🏼

[marble falls]

87. A lot of us are going through a lot of moral/ethical quandry these days, for different reasons...

... I'm sure. If we don't do this in times like these we risk loosing track of who we are and what we believe.

Plus a bit of awareness of what we might need to confront in the future is necessary, too.

You aren't alone. Along with a lot of other all around I'll be thinking about your daughter and you, and wish she escapes this thing being well.

[myohmy2]

88. +1

...I think we all feel your pain...

...and 127 of them in the House want to keep it going...

...sad...

[cry baby]

90. My best to your daughter and you.

Keep safe cause she needs you.

[redwitch]

92. I hope your daughter will be okay!

I am so sorry! I am really angry at these morons too!

94. You have every right to rage and I am so so so hoping that she recovers quickly!

This is hell to be going through and if something is not done about the right wind hate media that brought this entire disaster onto our country, I see no future that is not even more hellish.

Please know that you are not alone in coming here for company.

[stage left]

95. I understand your rage.

I hope your beloved daughter heals well and completely.

[sarge43]

96. All my thoughts and hopes for your courageous daughter's complete recovery.

The bravery and dedication of all the medical personnel on the front line humbles me.

That creature that harmed her should be charged and convicted of attempted murder.

Please try to remember these goons are not this country This country is your daughter and all like her.

[sheshe2]

97. Love and healing vibes to you and your daughter.

Wishing her a swift recovery. You take care of yourself as well, Traildogbob.

[mercuryblues]

98. I know how you feel.

Just after my Dad died from Covid, my daughter's best friend got it. I was beside myself with worry. Thankfully she recovered.

Anyhow, I sent her this cup. She loved it.

99. One cheerful note - the soldiers who are protecting the Capitol now have

live ammunition. So if these insurrectionists attack again they will be met with lethal force.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

100. That is hard to bear. I hope the man is charged, convicted, & jailed. Little comfort, but needed. nt

[Wicked Blue]

103. Bob, your anger is completely justified

I'm sending my best blessings and good vibes for your daughter to recover and heal.

106. Best wishes to your daughter for a full and speedy recovery

And for the country, as well

[pdxflyboy]

107. Righteous rant, Sir.

[Snackshack]

108. I hear you.

I have had it with these fuckers. COVID should have should have tapered off for the most part by now if we had had real leadership that had made the tough calls needed in the beginning of this. But here we are a year later and seeing record deaths per day because of these MF’s and their “rights” BS. My tolerance level is at zero for them and I will never forgive what they have done.

I understand your anger and I hope & pray your daughter heals soon fully.

🕯

[Traildogbob]

109. 🤜

I hope your daughter recovers.

[barbtries]

113. i forgive you.

[Traildogbob]

114. ✌🏼

[c-rational]

115. Well said and on target for these times. Healing vibes to your daughter and good thoughts to you.

Hope your daughter gets well soon so you can continue your hikes with the Lab. Time well spent.

[TigressDem]

118. No Justice, No Peace. KNOW Justice, KNOW Peace.

You are angry and rightfully so. And you are right, we won't have REAL justice until we get results based on facts and using the law as it is supposed to be used, to protect American citizens from hate crimes, sedition and attack by deranged followers of the orange man.

I pray so hard that your daughter not only survives but comes back 110% and thrives.

SHE is on the front lines just as you were, just a different battle zone.

It's so hard to be a parent when we can't reach out and fix whatever is hurting our child.

Or if we can, but shouldn't due to legal and moral considerations.

I somewhat know how you feel. Not exactly, but when I found out when my son was young that his Dad had sexually abused him I wanted to get in a car and go kill the bastard at that exact moment. He's dead now, not by my hand, but by his own. But there are days I would like to dig up his grave, stomp on him and throw him back in.

We had separated and were still fighting about custody because he couldn't stay sober long enough for me to trust him. He'd tried to kill me many years prior which led to separation, but he wanted joint custody and I just couldn't do it. I didn't know he was actually hurting my son. He gave up his parental rights rather than admit what he'd done.

When people hurt our children, they rip at our very souls.

Stay strong. You deserve the justice you seek, just don't go vigilante.

These assholes will get what is coming to them.

[Traildogbob]

120. My god

That is horrible. I hope your son is coping, he was blessed to have such a strong loving mom.
Thank you for your support.
I can’t even hug and console her, breaks my heart.
And all that have lost loved ones, also breaks my heart. Did not have to be.

[TigressDem]

122. Thanks. Just wanted you to know you aren't alone.

I thought I did ok.

Then he grew up. LOL.

He's drinking the tRump Koolaid.

So now I lose him and his family in a lot of ways.

Maybe someday when the truth is allowed to seep into his brain, he will get it and then it will be like when he turned 25.

He called me up, "Mom, I am so sorry." Out of the blue.

"For what?" I asked.

"For everything I ever did as a kid." He said. Then at my stunned silence, he continued. "Mom, I have 2 of ME. I now know why I drove you crazy sometimes and how hard it is to keep kids safe. I didn't GET IT. I do now."

We laughed and he admitted he had turned into me and was saying "parent stuff" he never thought he would.


Someday. Things may change, but I can't listen to him go on about the "proof" he finds on Newsmax and some crazy woman who is supposedly neutral but peddling tRump lies morning noon and night.

[Traildogbob]

123. Don't give up

Those fools will ruin him like Trump has the lives of so many. Lots of those attackers thought they would walk away free. Like Rhittenhouse, the 28 year old murderer. Like people on death bed before intubation screaming I do not have Covid, it’s a hoax.
When he sees justice and truths, he will come back to reality?

[TigressDem]

126. That is my every day prayer. Truth, Justice and back to reality. What a concept.

Sometimes I am so sick of tRump, I go find an old Obama speech, just to hear a President talk that cared about the people in this country not just himself.

I bought his book too.


I have to leave my son in God's hands, like I said before. I have a bit of a temper.

He starts spouting and I want to find somewhere to deprogram him... but he's a grown up. He makes his own choices now.

He can live with the consequences too.

[MustLoveBeagles]

119. I'm sorry

Sending good vibes to your daughter and I hope she makes a full recovery. The person that attacked her should be prosecuted for assault. You have every right to be angry. Keep us posted on her condition.

[Traildogbob]

121. I will

Thank you.

[roamer65]

124. This is why I think any belligerent denier patient should be discharged immediately.

Rolled out the front doors of the hospital and left for family.

[SergeStorms]

125. All my heart is with you and your daughter, Bob.

I can't imagine how I'd keep it together if something like that happened to my daughter. You're a better man than I. Nothing but my most heartfelt wishes for her full, speedy recovery. Please keep us posted on any developments. Take care of yourself too, please.

[Upthevibe]

127. Traildogbob....

I'm so sorry to hear that your daughter's sick. Please keep us posted regarding her situation.

What you've said is absolutely how I feel. They MUST pay and go to prison......The whole lot of them.

Thinking of you and hoping for the best.....

[mahina]

128. Holding your beautiful dear daughter in the light

And I read you all the way on the rest. Hearts with you. Please let us know how she’s doing. I hope she can sue that fucker and I hope he has a really nice house to lose to her.

Good luck mate

[peacebuzzard]

129. I am horrified; so sorry for this assault on your sweet daughter,

everyday my head spins, and now this occurrence with your daughter.
you are right about F Comey, when he or anyone else speaks of unifying I shudder.
There is no unifying with citizens who identify or dismiss the mob of ass-jerk hillbillies that ransacked the capitol.
There is no conversation to be had with those in our midst who are not shaken or disturbed by recent events and the by-product personalities infiltrated in our communities.

You have my complete sympathies for your rant, and further, my concurrence and outrage.

your daughter is an angel soldier in our midst. I am so sorry this occurred. I am thinking of this outrage as I send my well wishes for a complete recovery soon. This has got to be stopped.

Stay well, friend. I will look for updates...

[JDC]

130. Best wishes for your daughter. I identify with this.

[Tribetime]

131. Well said Thank you. I hope your daughter gets well soon

She is a hero.

[Heartstrings]

133. Healing vibes sent for your daughter.

And your rage is warranted.....
