I live in a rural Virginia county where we do not have garbage collection. There are three locations in the county where we take garbage, trash, and recyclables for deposit into various dumpsters.

I drive a gas-guzzling F250 SuperDuty 4WD that is distinctive by my decals and bumper stickers that identify me as a retired Army Ranger, Airborne, Special Forces, Vietnam Vet as well as a Proud Democrat.

Early this week as I was making our weekly dump run, a young fellow approached me, mocking my Hillary bumper stickers. He then went into a rant just like the one on the video, shoving middle fingers into my face, cursing at Hillary, and the like. Other folks at the dump were horrified. My first reaction was to retrieve the .45 from under my front seat and let him eat a couple of rounds. However, I didn't want to waste the ammunition, so, I let him rave, told him to have a nice day, and went about my business.

About an hour later I was at the hardware store when two of the people who had witnessed the encounter at the dump approached me, identified themselves as Trump voters, and apologized "That asshole does not represent us."

This is the class of supporters Trump attracks, they are good followers Thinkingabout Nov 2016 #1
