Wally, exactly how much Ted Nugent, Alex Jones, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, etc horseshit do you expect people to put up with before they get the hint that these motherfuckers really are dangerous?
You oh-so-conveniently manage to forget all the bullshit that your side dished out during the Obama presidency. We haven't. And I regard gun-toting conservatards as "dangerous."
I think a point you inadvertently hit on, is that it is definitely "You" now. On the right, we have the loonie wing that likes Beck, Jones, and Limbaugh, and if Harry Reid died, they'd all dance a little jig on air, and their followers would do the same. But we also have the Romney Wing on this side, and we aren't cheering for anybody to die. We don't particularly like the Jones/Beck/Limbaugh group, and they don't particularly like us.
On the left, it was my impression that it used to be the same. There are seemingly unstable people like yourself who will rant and rave and super cleverly add cunt and tard as suffixes to various words. But at the same time, there were plenty of people who were reasonable, and mostly interested in solving the same problems the Romney wing was trying to solve, but from a more government/progressive perspective.
But the reasonable people on the left seem to have wandered off. People who have no excuses for being batshit insane, are now cheering when people die. Oh, some republican got shot? Fuck 'em! Scalia died? Rot in hell. That's fine and expected from you. But there needs to be a group to counterbalance your dopiness, or things are going to get out of hand.
