@justjoinedtopost, those were NOT conservative voters that kidnapped and tortured that 18 year old in Chicago. Honestly, I've never encountered anyone that voted for DTJ go facebook live and told the world, "FUCK TRUMP!" and "FUCK WHITE PEOPLE!". Nope, didn't happen. This past autumn, not far from where I live, a group of thugs cornered a 17 yr old kid and pistol-whipped him to the point his skull was turned to mush. Want to know what his crime was? He had the unmitigated gall to announce on his facebook page that all lives, including police lives, matter. Some BLM wannabe activists, aged 18-21, took exception with his opinion and decided that they and they alone were judge, jury, and executioners. Race relations in this country are worse now than I've ever seen, and the POTUS this past eight years has NOT been a conservative.
I don't give a flying fuck if they were non-voters, conservative voters, liberal voters, or radicalized Sikh's in search of a 7-11 looking to get their Slurpee fix. They are violent criminals. That's what I give a fuck about.
So where you live, 4 high school thugs beat the shit out of another high school kid. Race relations are worse than you have ever seen, and the president for the last 8 years was not a
conservative Republican, so that's all you need to figure things out?
There was a high school race riot near the end of Reagan's administration, in the same region. No Blue/Black lives matter shit; pretty much just a bunch of white guys saying "Hey, there's more of us than them, let's go beat up some ni**ers". Yet Reagan
was a
conservative Republican. What conclusion can we draw from this? Pretty much the only one I can draw is that it should have been streamed live on Facebook for maximum impact.
So you never saw a Trump voter do anything like the idiots in the Facebook incident, and you feel there is a case to be made from that... Do you realize Americans are earning a reputation for being incredibly dumbed down, and that this sort of "logic" is the reason why?
You mentioned some of the corporate media in your earlier post, CNN,MSNBC, etc. I think. So who is "etc."? Who is shaping your views? Fox? Clearchannel? Drudge? Breitbart? The_Donald? Or are you just one of those Facebook handwringers?
Granted it's not all one way, but let's not put our collective heads in the sand and pretend it is. If you've seen something from a conservative news site and you know 100% it's false then by all means call that site out. But do not pretend that racism, sexism and every other ism one can come up with are all owned by conservatives and conservatives alone, they're not.
I don't think it is all one way, but it sure effing sounded like you were trying to pretend the exact opposite was true. And out of respect for real liberals and conservatives, I really wish y'all would stick to saying Democrats and Republicans, and let the rest of us have our words back.
The real issue here is that there are some legitimate reasons to be concerned, and all you can see is an opportunity to take an intellectually feeble swipe at the left.
Is this good for race relations? We have been heading towards this for several decades, not 8 years.

All the people on the left/right have bought into a big pie of bullshit allright. Pay no mind to the police state your Democrapublican party has built for you. Just put your head back in your appointed patch of partisan sand and wait for the next crisis.
