Actually I am a staunch Democrat and voted for Hillary. I'm not quite there yet but I'm close to being won over.

Oakland students, teachers call for school shut downs for Trump inauguration | KRON4.com

Yvette Felarca, a Berkeley teacher and organizer with the group By Any Means Necessary, said that more student walkouts were planned for Friday but called on the school districts and universities to simply cancel classes in protest.

“This is an emergency. The lives of our young people are at stake and we will not treat this as a routine matter,” Felarca said.
the stupid - it hurts.
This has all the logic of the rioters of the 1960's. To protest poverty and unemployment they burned down their own neighborhoods and sources of jobs. Very smart.

it's a childish temper tantrum publicized for all the world to see.

I'm sure Lady Gaga will make a great impression.

How is that different, besides relative literacy, to Obama's "elections have consequences" when he ignored objections to his more radical proposals.

That makes two of us.

Okay. To me, the post I had quoted is an example of one "bullying" another. Envision someone above another taunting them with these kinds of words, being abusive.
