37. So are you biased enough to infer someone you don't know a liar?

Casting judgement with out any proof other then by alleging is a symptom of what is wrong with our political system. Is there a purity test you would like to see for democrats. That is what really is killing the repubs. They have spent years trying to out "right" each other. Trying to toss someone in the basket of deplorables is the same thought process some of dipshit donnie's supporters do with muslims or other races. I know a lot of gun owners some are responsible others are not. I know better then to make mass judgements on any group of people.
