it's funny, as an independent, that those of you calling the other side "snowflakes" and telling them to "melt" and shite, all of a sudden need a safe space when there is opposition thrown at Trump... can you guys REALLY not see that you are 2 sides to the same coin? Dems went off after the election of Trump, just like Republicans went off after election of Obama... just so you know, BOTH fricking sides suck on certain issues, and BOTH have some merit on some issues... its time to fricking find some common ground to work with rather than keeping passing the political football...

First, I am an independent as well.

Second, I have not called anyone a "snowflake" or told anyone to "melt"... although I recently asked about that the whole melting phenomena.

Third, if the protests are peaceful and do not disrupt other individuals rights, then that's fine. When someone's right to free speech gets impeded, a protestor inconveniences someone else (especially those seeking medical care), or a protestor engages in violence against others (including other's property), then that's no longer the same coin. That's anarchy and should not be tolerated.

Fourth, I agree with you, both sides suck on certain issues which is why I view myself as independent. Also, common ground would be great... do you see the democrats working to find common ground or are they promoting anti-democratic propaganda?
