(241 posts)I am about 10 miles outside of Harrisburg. The county I live in is very red. My representative is Scott Perry who is a Trump-loving POS. A couple months ago he was meeting with some of his Republican constituents and he said that the Democrats are not the loyal opposition and that we are in fact traitors. This was reported on the news but it made barely a ripple. I was outraged! I wrote to him and expressed my displeasure but the coward never responded to me. I feel he is trying to get us killed!
There are a lot of Trump signs in the area which I live and many "Fuck Joe Biden" bumper stickers on cars. With the right wing media constantly advocating for a civil war I do not feel safe. It's like these lunatics are itching to go kill a bunch of Democrats. All they need is an excuse. When Rittenhouse was found not guilty I fear this has emboldened them. I expect them to show up at any liberal rallies or gatherings, being fully armed and looking for a reason to shoot someone. We are in for some very scary times. I feel like a Jew in 1930s Germany. In the past I used to have liberal bumper stickers on my car but I took them off for fear of my car being vandalized. This is no way to live. I feel that this country is going mad. But I don't know what we can do about it.
