Some of it is hard to ignore:

Looks like this "wonderful" NY resident has deleted his Face Book account and gone into hiding. Pity, I think he needs a visit from LEO and a "hug me" jacket post haste!

At the very least his neighbors/friends/coworkers need to know who they're around on a daily basis...

The ones who really care are the ones getting stuck in traffic jams they are creating and the ones having to pay for the damage they are causing.

They should ALL be tazed and arrested on felony charges.

I see this is really getting under your skin. According to the last results I saw, Clinton got 60,839,922 votes (good 500K+ over Trump, not that it matters). The overwhelming majority of those Trump opponents were disappointed after the election and then went back to their daily jobs. And they don't condone violence. So 99.9999% of the people who voted against Trump are NOT out there on the streets. So why do they have some sort of an obligation to take responsibility for the 0.0001% who are?

Furthermore, if Trump wanted to run as an inclusive candidate who can credibly call for unity after the election, he could have not spent the whole season running the most divisive and disrespectful campaign in history, followed up by telling us all before the election that he thought the elections would be a fraud.

If it's not productive to call all supporters of Trump "racist," then it's not productive to call all opponents of Trump "domestic terrorists."
Math doesn't seem to be your strong point. Let me walk you through it. 60,981,118 voted for Clinton. If you multiply 60,981,118 times .999999 you arrive at a figure of 60,981,057. You mean to tell me there are only 61 people out protesting?

You have lost all credibility.

And what does Obama have to do with Trump's image as an endorsee of the Nazis and the Klan?
I had never heard anyone from the KKK before so when yu posted that audio of this Nazi and/or KKK guy I decided to try to figure what they're saying....he never mentioned anything about violence and said he didn't want to be considered a bigot. Obama attended a black nationalist church that I've heard tapes of that were much worse than what you posted about this KKK guy....the difference is Trump probably has never heard this guy and would never want to unless he was just curious what the hell these guys believe like I was but Obama attended a church weekly that was spewing hateful rhetoric.

The difference is that liberals seem to believe that the hateful rhetoric spewed by Jeremiah Wright is true, and that everybody who lives outside of the large cities are hateful paranoid racists and bigots. I had a Hillary voter who was talking about how the only reason people do not live in cities is that they are racists and trying to avoid the minorities, and all I could do is laugh. They cannot grasp the idea that half the country has no interest in that lifestyle.
