As long as the democratic process proceeds peacefully and with due process of law. I know there will be differences in opinion, debate, proposed laws and court constitutionality tested. If anyone is worried about that. I'd only say, don't worry, because worry causes stress hormones that degrades your health and disposition. (Speaking to everyone, not you in particular) Use the golden rule you hand to others... understand the other side, get to know people as people, have value for the lives of all people, understand humankind is literally one family, empathize, and most of all, don't be an evil elitist. |

This topic is another perfect example on how hilarious it is when people who aren't into horror call us psychotic for loving it and yet we're the ones who actually give a damn about human life. ...I don't know why I keep pointing that out. It just baffles me I guess.
On topic however: You forgot to add females to your list. With that added I fall below two of those categories, and yet despite so many of my friends expressing their fear for me (and others who fit the list), I'm not really afraid. This isn't the days of Hitler's rein. We're not neanderthals with piss poor technology and little voice. This is a new generation and a new age. By some conspiracy (I refuse to believe otherwise) Trump won, but the people surely won't let the horrible things that have been rumored to pass. I have never really had much faith in humanity, but there truly are good people out there. People who give a shit and will stand for what is right. Something else this topic proves.

Even in the media, as with every election, we're starting to hear the tone change from the "fear jolting" and monster creation, to the understanding and working together. It's not that hard to see the centuries old cycle if you bother to look. On that point, every year the Repubs and Dems get out the professional persuaders and their $billions$ and try to convince everyone the Repub or Dem candidate is different this time... and every 4 year cycle is right between those narrow parameters of more of the same. Maybe moving to Canada, rioting or beating down your neighbor isn't all that beneficial. |

I'm not a Trump supporter. When he tried to quiet reporters, refuse to answer questions and refused to do a debate if Megan Kelly was one of the questioners, I put an X through Trump as a candidate. But over time, I've watched him not only change his behavior and rhetoric on that, he's changed and flexed on a lot of apparent stances. If you've even seen a Trump rally, you know he's very tongue-n-cheek. One taking everything he says as concrete policy is going to be very confused or disappointed. To answer your questions... I don't have a ton of time to get super detailed right now, I have to do sound for my Escape Room. But let me just say what should be obvious: the vast majority of protesters, probably 99% are not paid, but wikileaks revealed there were paid agitators sent to Trump rallies, agitators we saw. Mobs physically attacked men and women leaving a Trump rally in San Jose early on in the Trump travels (easily found on youtube). Wikileaks revealed there was collusion between Clinton's Campaign and a PAC group that agitated at Trump rallies, which is illegal in campaign law. So there's been both, right? The other question: has the media (of any type and size) whipped up contention against Clinton and Trump? Of course. Has some of what the media said been 100% correct and direct quotes of the candidates and applicable associates and emails? Of course. Has some media reports been a bunch of opinion, or exaggeration, or straight-up mischaracterization? Of course. There you go. Is that surprising? I'm happy to see people rally for 'Love over hate', and anti-racism, protest for or against policies. I think it's great. I just hope nobody riots: burns buildings, cars, property or attacks people... for obvious reasons, along with the fact it's not beneficial to the protesters' position.

Its already getting worse. Disgusting.
http://www.politico.com/story/2016/0...n-fight-223366 GOP leaders barely muscled up the votes to reject an amendment that would have barred federal contractors from getting government work if they discriminate against the LGBT community.
