No because I'm not dumb enough to associate 1 guy's psychopathic rampage with political affiliation or think that it anyway and envelops an entire group of peoples.

Now this is far to prevalent on both sides, but I don't understand how one can see how frustrating and counterproductive it is when the other side makes ridiculous generalizations about his/her side, then can turn around and do the same back, and ignore their frustration, or worse, fail to understand why they are frustrated.

Children can quickly use basic empathy and realize if I didn't like it when you hit me so I cried, and you cried when I hit you, then maybe we shouldn't hit one another.

Yet, when those same children become adults, they can't apply such a simple process to politics, despite apparent frustration, confusion, and concern that politics has become so divisive, toxic, and unproductive, even counterproductive.

I'm beginning we all lose about 30 points of our IQ when we discuss politics.
