I voted for Johnson, but it really irks me to see how horrible both Trump supporters and Hillary supporters have been to each other this past week.

I know that MANY people are upset and angry right now, but whatever one's religion (or non-religion) is, I hope we can all just take a deep breath and remember that ALL people should try to live with each other in peace and harmony -- and especially during the holiday season.

As most of you reading this are probably Christian, I would just like to respectfully remind you that Jesus Christ would almost certainly not approve of all the violence and hatred going on now -- and, to emphasize, this applies to everyone who is saying hateful things about "the other side".

I voted for Trump so we don't have to be PC and say "holiday" anymore.

Actually, I was thinking of Christmas, Hannukah, Kwanzaa, AND Thanksgiving!

In any case, I certainly hope the New Year will be MUCH better than 2016 has been.

To the OP -- that was a nice thought. Hope you have a nice holiday season.

But to THIS guy:

How about when the BLM terrorists are shooting cops, or the liberals that are rioting in the streets because they don't agree with the democratic process we've had in place since 1776? Can we ask you about that then?

God? What God? The one that tells people marriage is between a man and a woman.

Hmmm. Unless you have a direct connection to the Almighty I don't think He ever said that.

Enjoy your Christmas. Ill enjoy mine. Just dont expect me to agree with your views. I'm in survival mode. I'm not playing nice anymore.

Oh, you're not playing nice? Boo fricken' hoo. Go hug a puppy and feel better.

I don't need to prove anything to you. I'm talking to other liberals, not to you. Your opinion does not exist in my universe as far as I am concerned.
Your universe is a sad place to be right now ... good luck to ya.

That's funny...I am a woman who was attacked by other women, and have had the "mean girls" syndrome happen to me throughout my life. So I have to ask, when are women going to stop being bullies to other women? And it has always been liberal women who bully other women, but blame "men" for everything bad in their life!

Its always a pleasure to hear from the highly educated.

I hope to meet more of them when I volunteer to hand out Turkey dinners this month to the hungry and homeless.

It's been a warm Autumn.
Once winter sets in and there's snow on the ground, I'm sure things will settle down. They usually do in the winters.

How have the Trump supporters 'been to each other'? Trump supporters are celebrating, they're not doing anything, why lump them in with rioting idiots?
