    I have seen things this year that I have never seen before. In the media showing president Trump being decapitated, or being shot by a music idol, being murdered in the street as theater. Walking out of a graduation just because you did not want to hear someone. To have a speech saying you want to bomb the white house. If these people can call themselves rational people they all need to visit a mental hospital.

    I think both sides are guilty of going too far.

    I didn't want to go here because it got really ugly on here last year when there was a photo of Obama hanging in a noose.

    I was appalled at the decapitated head of Trump but then I remembered the Obama pic...I'm tired of all of it.

    Hate breeds hate - time to reflect, time to be rational
    Joining in the fracas achieves nothing, but that's what's happening out there
    Maybe Mr. Trump should have quelled his stance on violence in his rallies, instead of saying words like
    I would have punched the guy - or, if I was to leave here and shoot somebody, people would still vote for me
    He has not helped the situation

    I never saw the noose picture or heard of it. I'm not surprised though. I did google anti Obama and there were some terrible signs. It would be good for all this back and forth negativity to end but it's not going to.

    Very true. And didn't he get a whole auditorium to chant "lock her up." Again listening to Larson on the radio yesterday afternoon stated something like what people on the right say is understandable because they are just so "frustrated."

    No, it's not going to end but I've decided that I'm not going to be a part of it anymore....it's gone too far on both sides.

    Maybe the far left and the far right will cancel each other out and the middle ground will prevail! :)

    These thinks like un named sources, government employee [mailman] connected to a high official [ third cousin] all these that they think you will swallow without thinking it might be fake.
