And I take it by your silence that you, swampy, condone the physical attacks on gays and Muslims, the intimidation by white students of their latino and Muslim classmates, the people in blackface, and the K K K rally which have all happened in only the first 48 hours after Trump's election.
.

The people in blackface and K K K thugs in a racist attack.....

David Wilcox, 49, said he was about to turn left from Kedzie Avenue to Roosevelt Road around 1 p.m. Wednesday when a black sedan pulled up and scraped the right side of his Pontiac Bonneville.
"I stopped and parked. And I asked if they had insurance, and the next thing that I knew they were beating the s--- out of me," Wilcox said Thursday.
A phone video shot from a bus stop at the intersection shows Wilcox being knocked to the pavement as five people gather around him. A man in the group straddles his back and punches Wilcox with both hands.
As the fight picks up, people on the sidewalk away from the struggle yell taunts that include "You voted Trump," "Beat his ass" and "Don't vote Trump."
There's laughter as Wilcox rolls on his back and covers his face. Two people hit and kick him. Wilcox gets up and tries to get back in his car, but someone repeatedly punches him until he slumps by the side of the vehicle.
Someone else then gets into the driver's seat of the Bonneville, and Wilcox tries to get him out. People shove him away, but Wilcox grabs onto a door frame and is dragged along as the Bonneville pulls away.
Bystanders yell anti-Trump taunts as man beaten after car crash
Warning: contains graphic language. David Wilcox, 49, speaks with a reporter the day after he was beaten on the West Side of Chicago following a car crash on Nov. 9, 2016. A bystander captured the beating on video in which bystanders yell anti-Trump taunts at Wilcox. (Zbigniew Bzdak / Chicago Tribune)
"They were beating me to have me let go of the car," Wilcox said. "The guy went to 70 and 80 mph. If I let go, I was dead. He slowed to 45. … He tried to push the door open. …So he stepped on it again.
"He stepped up back to 70 and 80, swerved again," Wilcox said. "The wheels on my side left the ground, up to 2 inches. … Then he slowed down. I was looking at oncoming traffic. He probably slowed to about 45. God was watching over for me. I rolled about five or seven times into the oncoming traffic lanes.
......
He said the taunts appeared to come from people watching the beating, including one person at the bus stop who he heard say, "Yeah, it's one of them white boy Trump guys."
Wilcox believes the attackers, who were black, were egged on by the bystanders. "They intensified it, aggravated it and made it more than it was."

What's your point? Swampy already covered this aspect. I was covering the inverse. Anyhow, I already knew about this. I also know about the Muslim man who was beaten to death in Wisconsin for being a Muslim. Are we going to spend all our time comparing horror stories? The point is, Trump unleashed the whirlwind regardless of the individual examples from both sides.

Once again, you show that you do not understand subtleties nor complex thinking. And not all that much English, it seems. You're a cartoon character.

"Swampy's Law":

"As one of swampy's threads grows longer, the probability of her being proved wrong approaches one."

The point is to keep the anger and bitterness going. One thing the last four years have proven is that the anti-Obama/Clinton forces LOVE strife and they sure aren't going to give that up just because the Democrats lost the White House.

A very small number of people "rioting" and protesting is being trumped up by the liberal media like it's the storming of the Bastille or the collapse of the Berlin Wall.

It is a huge, steaming load of BS, just a bunch of stupid "internet excitement".

Speaker of the House Ryan has already pointed out that he wants to get rid of Medicare. Swampy and I may be in the same protest parade when they try to do that.

As for protest marches, Trump started out claiming that they were hired, but then walked it back. I guess it is hard to make the hired goons argument when it is thousands of people showing up all over the country.

All sorts of thugs are coming out of the woodwork:

' One day after Republican candidate Donald Trump was elected president, some middle school students in Royal Oak chanted enthusiasm for one of his platform planks: building a wall between the United States and Mexico.
The incident was captured on video and widely shared on Facebook. It took place at lunchtime at Royal Oak Middle School.
As soon as the chants began, seventh-grader Josie Ramon, 12, said she pulled out her phone and captured the video to share with her mother.
"Tears were running down my face," said Josie, who is Mexican-American. "I was so upset. A friend went to the bathroom crying. Everybody was chanting along with it. She was scared. She looked really upset. I felt really bad for her." '

This nyah nyah nyah taunting and nasty bullshit is exactly what is wrong with our country and it's why our new President-elect is a hateful man who believes that you, Swampy, are worthless and only a 3 because you are a woman who is neither beautiful nor young.

$tevie, I put my big girl panties on many years ago and I couldn't care less what others think of me. Trump has never said I was a 3 or that he thinks I am worthless. You speak in such generalities. People are too easily offended these days or think the world revolves around them. I don't put myself in the "all women are offended" category and am not in the least offended by Trump's misogyny. In my youth, I dealt with "handsy" men, except in my day we didn't have human resource people to go to or harassment laws.

To all the melinnials I say grow up! Enough with the safe spaces and crying rooms and dog therapy because your guy lost. As BHO said.."I won, deal with it"

Swampy, it's great that nothing hurts your feelings. Personally, I like men who respect women and don't talk about how big they think their girl-baby's boobs might get to be.
