and no disrespect to your post, but I know for a fact that these sorts of posters have been around since the 1990's when President Clinton was in office. I know from attending a local gun show (the one and only time I ever went to one of those), and when I saw those I immediately understood that this was a portion of our populace that I never knew was so abhorrent.

I just watched the documentary on the Oklahoma City bombing on Netflix and it brought back so many memories about the rise of the militia groups in our country and how the angry white male syndrome evolved. Those of us who are sane MUST continue to speak out against the hate and do every single thing we can to get our country back!

Unfortunately, their focus has broadened (aided by their hate mongers on TV, radio, and internet) to Liberals and Progressives in general. Unless someone puts a stop to this, there will be bloodshed.

Well...maybe there is. They sell toilet paper with Trump's face on every sheet. What would be the harm in a bunch of us slipping into a Trump rally, visiting the head, and exhanging the plain, boring paper in each stall with a festive and beautiful roll of Trump Paper?
