Reply #39: These people spread so much hatred and intolerance that it's hard not to lash out

These fundamentalists are scary to me and I think that they are a direct threat to our democracy. I like to see them fall and it is difficult to muster up any sympathy for any of them as they are so abusive to so many good people. However, I am making an effort to muster up some sympathy for the wife and certainly for the kids. I know people in a similar situation and it is painful for the family. I can't imagine it can't also be tremendously painful for them. As one person said, I hope that this opens their eyes and they can find true love and compassion.
