There are those who say that it's cowardly to leave America, and we should stay and fight. I feel the opposite.
A day does not go by where I'm not ashamed to be an American. I do not see that changing anytime in the near or distant future. In fact, I believe it will only get worse from here.
The final nail will be if the DOJ lets TFG and his buddies escape unscathed. I'll believe he's going to be indicted when it happens, and not a second before.
I'd much prefer to live in a country where every single day isn't a struggle to protect what remnants are left of a former Democracy. I've had enough of being Charlie Brown trying to kick Lucy's football. America has chosen it's path, and it's a worldwide embarrassment.

anyone with such a weapon at a campaign event should be treated as a potential assassin

Take your Jesus and stick him up your ass - you hillbilly. This exactly the reason

And had the GD nerve to ask Beto if he'd been BORN AGAIN and SAVED BY JEEBUS and that shit.

Rather than waste his time on this kind of crowd, maybe Beto could vet the audiences. Only go where

Peace, Love & Forgiveness is all a Preacher should be carrying. Not an AR-15. n/t
