(3,433 posts)People have lost everything. Their homes are gone. Many have children and are now having to explain to their kid that their favorite stuffed animal is gone. They have to explain that their pet is gone. Homes full of memories; photographs, keep sakes, family heirlooms destroyed.
They vote differently and often completely wrong. Some of them harbor hate for those who are different. They may believe I am the spawn of Satan . Yet I do have sympathy for them because no one should have to suffer what they suffer.
I will fight them tooth and nail on policy, on their ideology, and against those they would vote into office. I will not wish them harm, tell them they deserve their fate or deny them compassion.
I find this notion of denying sympathy... this notion of deserved punishment for wrong think... horrible and so lacking in integrity.
