Let's take a look at my beloved Huff Post see how they are reacting shall we !

Incidentally, this is the first time I've been able to tolerate the Huffington Post. There's something about Trump winning that takes the snarky condescension out of their articles.

Don't worry deep down inside anyone that visits Huff Post hates themselves they are just projecting their anger. Not to psychoanalyze them but it's a classic case of it.

No one's saying Farmer John in Nevada can't mind his own business, he just shouldn't be a bigot while minding it unless he's in the privacy of his own home.

Who are you (or I) to say what he should or shouldn't be. If the farmer isn't physically harming anyone or violating someones property rights he can be as biggoted as he wants.

What about people on the other side? Should they only be allowed to express their opinion in the privacy of their own home? If you believe that, then why are you here, expressing your opinion in public?
Thorbean, let's say, hypothetically, Farmer John has a job away from his farm. It could be flipping burgers for a couple extra bucks. Word gets back to his boss that he's a bigot and his boss can choose to terminate him from his post. Or that someone of a given ethnic group he's said ***about gets a gun and decides to go off on him to shut his mouth for him.

There are a lot of reasons Farmer John should confine his bigotry to the inside of his own home.

So people should keep their lifestyle and opinions hidden to avoid being fired or killed. Gotcha.
All I'm saying is, you don't know if anything you say can get back to your current or potential employer, or if someone within earshot is packing and doesn't like what you've said and may just decide to up and blow your head off for it.

It's better to keep it hidden within the privacy of your own home and stay safe and employable, than it is to run your mouth in public and end up fired or dead.
Sure, if people were actually getting killed on the streets for having a viewpoint. Except you really don't see that, don't you?

And before you have a conniption fit, yes, I do know people do die from having a viewpoint, but it's not as common as you think. It's big news because it happens so rarely.

They can't see past themselves (Huff Post) people because. Their entire life they were told you are good. Everything you do is good. When Trump and brings them back to reality it's like coming down from cocaine. A harsh reality that living you whining in the gutter !

Heading to NYC on Saturday with work. Can't wait to be greeted by the emboldened Trump fans.
In previous times I just pretended to be Mexican and learnt some spanish slang...but I'm not interested in hard labor, building a wall.

So I guess my default go to is Spanish?

God help me - they (trumpers) were pretty vocal before trump won... its probably going to be like "The Purge" now..

Trust me, you aren't going to find nearly as many Trump fans in NYC as you would in Pisstown, Ohio.

Hot damn I learned something:

Psychological projection is a theory in psychology in which humans defend themselves against their own unconscious impulses or qualities (both positive and negative) by denying their existence in themselves while attributing them to others.[1]

For example, a person who is habitually rude may constantly accuse other people of being rude. It incorporates blame shifting.

Still not likely.

If you really want to be discriminated, go at least 20 miles out of a metropolis's city limits. Or anywhere in Texas.

Just make sure you wear your bomb vest, for easy identification.

-no hablo english, no comprendo, Déjame solo por favor

Rumor has it that they're expected to announce the final electoral tally by 2018. Due to budget cuts, Michigan is counting votes by abacus.

Tfw hating people who wish for the eradication or subjugation of an entire people based on race, religion or sexual preference is the same as being someone who wishes for the above to occur.

Free speech as long as it doesn't offend then? I'm not a fan of that idea, I prefer my real biggots to shout it from the roof tops so I know who to avoid.
And I prefer they keep it within the privacy of their own homes so they don't find themselves dragged out of their beds and killed in the middle of the night like they've done to so many others themselves.

If you don't know what their opinion is on the subject and they are encouraged to hide their true opinion, how do you make sure these types of people aren't interacting with your kids etc?

Say you have to choose between 2 people to run your local school. 1 is a biggot and the other isn't. Should the biggot be encouraged to keep his opinions quiet or would you rather they were open about their prejudice?

If the burger flipping farmer kept his opinions to himself he could be spitting in those burgers going out to minorities for years.

What's strange is how people who demand bigots to be quiet are the ones who make very bigoted comments publicly, and quite often.

It's like they don't even know what that word means.
