    How are your assumptions and prejudices different than when Trump voters talk about cities?

      I lived in rural Idaho for several years during Obama’s entire term. You have no idea how many times I had to listen to people’s fantasies about hanging or shooting Obama.

      My children went to school and they would come home and tell me the kids talked about murdering him all the time. The teachers even joked about it.

      You have no fucking clue what you are talking about. You don’t know hate.

        And now you’re showing them by acting just like them…

        Have you never heard the phrase “circle of hate”?

          I don’t hate them, but I will not delude myself. I know it, I lived it. You really have no clue about the reality of the situation because you lack first hand knowledge.

          You ever lived in a town where if you talked to a woman she would have a black eye the next day because her husband heard about it?
