We the people

It is horrible to see people I know, even though it is only a very few, embracing everything I believe is wrong with the world.

This is the United States of America and we elected a president of the United States, not once, but twice and there are people who still disrespect the office of the presidency in one of the largest countries in the world. I have never seen this done to this extent, not even with Nixon and Bush, before. It is not just ugly politics or lack of patriotism, although it is both, it is also racism and bigotry and some of the ugliest things that exist in this world.

There is no point in talking to these people.

They want someone to blame more than they want truth, or justice, or freedom of religion, or separation of church and state. They have a double standard. They have a thousand excuses.

I don't pretend to understand how good people can be this dark, but I will never ever be able to look at them, or think of them in the same way ever again. I never wanted to know, but now I will always wonder what they are deep inside.

It breaks my heart.
