Nothing like sharing hate and giving stupid people more press. Can always count on Roy to perpetuate ignorance and inflammatory bull shit!
I am most impressed by the range of accounts, the high preponderances of CVS's as settings -a and that former pal of Nixon's whose parishioners have been victims. Disturbing.
Any of these alleged incidents can easily be made up. Citations?
Well, you've got to take into account background info, like the enormous spike in incidents reported by such organizations as Southern Poverty Law, etc. It's pretty obvious that these kinds of incidents are happening more than prior to the election. You even see it in what politicians and everyone else is willing to say in public: a new unabashedness about themes that were once "incorrect." --RB
Those of us who watch the news have seen precisely such comments, and worse, being made by Trump supporters for many months. Recognize reality, Mr. Troll.
Free speech works both ways even if it's distasteful speech. For decades foreigners have been breaking into our country, disrespecting our laws, bringing in drugs, hurting or killing our people, desecrating our flag, parading their flag while accusing us of being racists, etc... So now the tables have turned and they're surprised? Give us all a break!
