Then I am truly sorry that you've been able to exist insulated from that knowledge, but now are aware of it. Those assholes have always been there, at least as far back as I'm aware of over the last 100 years. Their numbers have continually shrunk, but they are there. I'm nor mocking you now. The saying ignorance is bliss is true. What you do with this knowledge now that the bubble you were in has popped is the question.

Agree with A1, but seriously? That has to be one of the first flights out today. Fail.

Yeah come on rookie move, never get coffee

Wow, way to not find any humor in the situation. Damn but people are on hair triggers. Those asshats were around before this weekend...is it just the recency of the news that makes you frightened? Does it help to highlight they are a small (some estimates at 500 in VA March, and others note that the "alt right" numbers only about 1600) and despised across the political spectrum? That 99.9% of the country rejects their twisted ideology?

Doesn't matter how small. It only takes one to launch an unprovoked attack on someone like me for no reason other than that I'm not white. I actually didn't realize so many people like this still existed in America until the march.

Lemme rephrase - I knew they existed (as every dark skinned person in this country always does in the back of their mind) but I'd thought we were way past the point where they'd have the support and audacity to come out and make a showing of it. I might be more scared of the fact that it now feels like our executive branch condones it, because until recently they were universally hated from the top down. Now it seems like they might have some protection to start acting on their views if they want to, and that's terrifying.
