Really rude and disrespectful. We already know they hate the TPP. And they hate Hillary, and they hate ... blah-blah-blah. ENOUGH. They don't understand how counter-productive this kind of acting-out is. It doesn't make the object of your outrage look bad. It makes YOU look bad! Enough with the misbehaving. Show some respect. Try acting like the adults your drivers' licenses say you are.
