          I’m sorry, again he attacks people for having different beliefs than he has basically insinuating they are not patriotic. The strength of our country comes from all sides. It’s about finding common ground. Attacking others who do not share your opinion is a fail.

          WHERE ARE WE HEADED AS A NATION? The man w/ the guns controls the nation, your city, your neighborhood. Do we have to personally own enough weapons to defend ourselves from a neighbor who thinks he's on a PATRIOTIC MISSION. Who decides what that PATRIOTIC MISSION is? Trump? NRA?
