This thread is a micro view of why we no longer can resolve the issues that really matter in this nation. At this point the only focus should be on how we all go forward. But that won't happen because the political class is making use of us as their useful idiots stoking class, race economic division in return for your vote and your vote means "two things to them "power" and "control"

Voters should be demanding solutions to our economic woes, our foreign policy and the defense of this nation. Everything else should be side lined until our leaders have solved those issues.

As a side bar we will continue this slide to perdition until we curtail our slide toward a secular state ( my meaning that government replaces rule of law)
Setting aside the religious implications the Ten Commandments are an excellent guide back to civility and reason. In that then government is a false god
