   Yes, the same as racism. I dare anyone to tell me that while in a fire fight they paid attention to, let alone gave a rat’s 6, what color or what gender or what sexual preference the person next to them was. They’d be liars. As long as they were shooting in the same direction I was, I liked `em. So, I have no issue with, and welcome any living next door. Priorities are made by knowledge.

   Every Republican/conservative president since 1929 has had a depression or recession, some had two.

   We don’t need a lot more umpires. We need a lot more Democrats in the House and Senate to impeach and remove the ones we have.

   Ignorance. Mankind has suffered for ignorance since our beginnings. Why is it that some people prefer to dwell in the ignorance of denial, embrace the ignorance of hiding the truth, thrive on the lies? We’ve had gay leaders in the U.S. since our founding, more open then than after the Victorian Age of conservatism, that ignorance putting them in the closet. Why does it bother anyone what someone else does that harms nobody? Whose business is it what others do or prefer for themselves? Bigotry and racism are ignorance. I know of no one who was asked before they were born how they wanted to be born. Most would have chosen movie star looks and multi $billionaire parents, and some would say white, male and straight. Yet we have those who would tell others how to live, when they don’t do a very good job running their own lives, and what choices they are allowed to make, when their choices cost us freedom and lives, or that one is better than another.

   I’ve often thought that fear is borne of ignorance embraced. I’ve often thought the fear of gay is fear of self. Do the loudest and most vocal opponents in reality doubt their own sexuality? The only ‘threat’ to someone else is that they might be gay themselves. Fear induced bigotry, racism, misogamy, elitism, are all borne of ignorance. Knowledge is the only way to defeat ignorance.

   “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men (updated to all people) are created equal”

   This Great Nation was founded on this profound knowledge. We’ve yet to practice it fully. We have those to this day who oppose that knowledge. Those who would take us back to a time before that profound knowledge was spoken. ‘WE, the People’ must embrace the knowledge, defeat the ignorance to be what we claim we stand for.

   EVERY single person who stormed the capitol and ENTERED for any reason at all were there to break the law. Not one single person was there to just “walk around”.

   Get someone to read it to you.

    Yes, after you tried lying about the numbers and saying that 2X 1,230 is not 2500. Read what you wrote and I answered. Your silliness is apparent.

    Again, "EVERY single person who stormed the capitol and ENTERED for any reason at all were there to break the law. Not one single person was there to just “walk around”.

    And regardless how you try and spin it, insurrection is the fact. Go peddle your tRump baloney elsewhere.
