I think it would be better to term it a service of solidarity with those who rightfully have reason to fear how the election results may harm them or cause harm to those they love.
As I said, her admirable vocation doesn't mean that her political perspectives are moral.

Nonsense on two counts, but the whole point of apologia for immorality, such as that you support, is to deny morality.

Recommendations
Read Rawls
Visit Flo's Museum in London....next to the Thompson Hospital.
Do you define moral as universal and within all? As Emanuel Kant (I believe )?
Cheers.
This election was a rebellion against people of color, immigrants, LGBTs, non-Christians, et al
White fear voted en masse
Typical... anyone who doesn't lock step with progressives are racists, bigots, misogynists, homophobes... bla bla bla
These lies are getting old. This nonsense is designed to enrage the young minds who believe it.
Trump basically did about the same as Romney with whites.
The fact is; just as Obama could not have been elected without whites (twice), Trump couldn't have won without blacks, Hispanics/Latinos, and women. He more than doubled Romney in these demographics.
The reason HRC lost is because she was abandoned by the young vote. The 18-29 demographic didn't show up. The same kids who are now protesting, some violently, only have themselves to blame.
My take: People are disgusted with DC and the establishment, it has nothing to do with the spin you're pushing.
Location: Finally the house is done and we are in Port St. Lucie!

In bold above. This.
People are fed up with Government. They are fed up with the overreach, the massive amounts of regulation, the good old boys club, the same ol' same ol'.
They are fed up and have given notice.
How they are going about showing their displeasure ... that's another story.

Everyone who's "grieving" and going into histrionics over Trump winning needs to look back in history to when our nation was in it's infancy and see what was said about the newly elected presidents and what they did.
Filling up the administration using the Friends and Family plan etc.
Much of what's being said today was said back then. Just look at what was said about Lincoln as an example...
You are literally wrong. The measure of a society is how it treats its most vulnerable members. Every major Eastern and Western religious, and non-religious, code of morality, going back to the Code of Hammurabi, teaches that. If you don't know what morality is, you're better off keeping silent about it.
Would you like it better if we gave you a Participation Trophy?

I'm not going to debate a racist about racism. You think when blacks get together corruption follows? Call Obama the NIC? You have your racist president now. He and his father wouldn't rent to blacks. He ran his campaign on calling Mexicans rapists and drug dealers. Congratulations and I hope we see entitlement reform really soon so seniors can get a coupon toward the purchase of a policy they pay for based on their medical risk.
Why do all your posts mention "racists"....the only racists are those who call "others" racists...which would be you. It's tiring and irritating to read your victim mentality posts....
They are off to greener pastures and starting threads regarding how the electoral college sucks,
We didn't elect Trump, Trumps getting us into a war with Russia...yada, yada, yada....
Hmmmm.......interesting since Trump, himself, was ranting against the Electoral College as recently as 2012.
I'm a licensed clinical social worker whose job and passion is helping the very most disadvantaged and struggling members of society. I do it every day, day in and day out, not as a "political hobby".
Hillary and her crew were poison, pure poison to the people I and those like me are trying to help.
Specifically, how??? What was done to these people to poison them?

How, exactly, does an undisciplined narcisistic disordered personality - witness, once again, the adolescent 'oh, woe is me, life's not fair" tantrum/tweet from last night:
who is a sexual predator, liar and a thief make a "fine President."
Where is the ADULT in that tweet?? Where is the PRESIDENT in that tweet? We wouldn't put up with that kind of childish belly-aching from our own kids.
Generally, narcissistic disordered personalities get worse the more power they have.
Trump does NOT care about anyone in this country. Trump only cares about his own ego and his own interests. Period.
He left office in 2000
