Playing nice is NOT an option. They will not wear masks, harass those who do, and talk up insurrection methods in line at the grocery store the way they used to compare high school basketball scores.

I have NO reason to play nice with rattlesnakes. I don't need to set them off or eliminate them from the wood pile. However I am considering a new walking stick from the Louisville Slugger custom wood line. It helped keep trouble a few feet further away in a former lifetime and neighborhood. I never had to do more than walk along with it, The message was clear enough. I am not looking for an argument and I won't have one either.

They have appropriated the flag, they do not believe science and scorn any symbol of peace or reconciliation.

Until Trump concedes or the GOP does we are screwed on getting along.
