It matters when you claim that Trump supporters are giving death threats.

"Nastiness" and "death threats" are very different. You don't get to downplay that to push an agenda.

It's funny, there is another thread where some antifa person wrote a letter to the cops in Asheville. Your right wing pals are all worked up about it.

Maybe you should look at that thread to see if it's "nastiness" or a "death threat" and decide if your right wing fellows are "downplaying it to push and agenda"....

So "nastiness" is now considered threatening? No examples of threats given. Stated reason for leaving is "nastiness". I have received plenty of nastiness in my life. Not one was threatening.

Sounds like a snowflake to me.

1) Wear a t-shirt with logo "Build Back Better" and walk around a conservative area like Boise Idaho

2) Wear MAGA hat and walk around a college campus in Berkeley
or just tell a MAGA supporter the election wasn't stolen in any of several states.

I was an election worker for a number of elections, and it was one of the more unpleasant experiences of my life.

There were a lot of nice people who appreciated what we were doing, and it was satisfying to be a small part of something so important.

However, every so often, a voter would demand that I look at his I.D., then would get belligerent about it.

Others would insist they were registered in this precinct. Sometimes they weren't registered at all, let alone in that precinct.

How silly is this? Very, very silly. Many of us tolerated people being nasty, because we wouldn't afford to just quit our jobs, so boo-hoo-hoo for them.

Of course, we are talking about liberals. I didn't see anything about police reports, although I can't imagine what they might have done in this case.

Oh, come on, how "timely" is their complaint? They will be coming out of the woodwork with their stories with the mid-term coming up.

Life must be hard for the weak, but they need toughen up as things aren't going to get easier for anyone.
