(73 posts)You likely, depending on region, deal with at least 30% of Democratic, Republican, and Independent voters every day. Judging all Republicans by the actions of a very few outliers has robbed us of our decency it seems to me. The same when Republicans judge us by the actions of our more regrettable members.
None of us are literally dealing with 3 out of 10 people being these examples we provide as to why we can hate. With a population over 300 million, a one in a million chance happens only about 300 times a day, one in a billion, every 3 days or so.
Most people regardless of race, creed, politics, or religion are not all that much different than you or I. Let us be better, each day is a chance to set an example and be a leader. Bless us all, we are the party of hope and peace, let us not forget it.
