I've been downhill skiing once, and I never did it again. That pic could actually have been me going down the bunny slope!

these people is their irrational hate?

Is it simply that they are too lazy to think? Is there more fundamental psychology involved?

Or is it simply the LBJ rule, the one from his great quote? But why do people need to feel this way to give their lives meaning?

Is so f'n sad. 😩

Thanks for this 'toon. I'm spreading it around.

Their pre frontal cortexes were never fully developed. They have trouble with reason, love and critical thinking skills.

I listened to a Sermon on Fear! Described exactly what Trump and his followers are doing to our Country. Fear is the motivating quality that Trump uses to control his followers.

Fear and hate.

Not saying horrific things haven't happened, but something generational is what it will take for the leaders of this country to stand up and see the danger among us. There are hundreds of rabid Home Grown Trump loving terrorists planning attacks in this country right now. It's going to take another Oklahoma City level tragedy to wake our leaders up.

was to divert law enforcement resources away from monitoring white supremacist groups and take them off the watch lists. They are counting on violence to happen against minorities and immigrants when impeachment proceedings begin. White supremacists are useful idiots used by this administration.

When such a situation occurs, the president is granted enormous, sweeping powers, including the power to suspend elections.

THINK ABOUT THAT.

If that ever happens on his watch, we are ALL fucked.
