    A year ago, Washington joined in unity, prayer and civility after horror erupted on a baseball field. We should be able to disagree without being disagreeable. #civilityhttps://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/07/finding-unity-in-a-divided-washington/532512/ …

        I’m sorry that happened to you. I encourage you with these words from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”

        and it is love that makes me stand and fight, love for this country, love for my family, love for my community, i stand and fight so that the future for them will be better. civility and appeasement will only go so far.

        It starts at the top. Talk to the President, he is the one sewing discord on a daily basis.

        Everyone has a part of play. “If the national pendulum is ever going to swing, it will require role models in every community who don’t just call out for respectful opposition, but practice it.”

        There are many who say he is unhinged. I'm not a doctor so I can't actually say that. But can anybody tell me anything he has done for the middle class or the poor. He seems like hes working for the rich and only the rich. And that's Not a good look for our so called president.

        Your so right K.P. gump is only working for the rich. To hell with the rest of us. The big reason he caters to the rich I'd because he can fleece more money out of them than us.

        This is not about civility. The Trump administration embraces corruption, lying, exploitation, and bigotry. The citizenry is standing up to un-American principals because congress has abdicated their constitutional responsibilities and morality.

        Republicans made the #NFL protests about the flag instead of police brutality on minorities, which is why they protested. Your tweet above is trying to change the narrative and the message again. Shame on you!!!

        You don't get to play the victim card, sir. Not with what your party, your party of Trump, is doing to not just the nation but the human race.

        You know, I would agree with you IF you confronted the single worse uncivil person in the country: the head of your party. Until then, your words are meaningless. Go to one of his rallies. Then we'll talk about civility. #GiveMeABreak

        There is a difference between disagreement and horror. We aren't facing two policy decisions of equal standing. We are facing human rights violations. I'm so fing tired of the double standard. GOPs stock in trade has been hyperbole, hypocrisy & faux outrage for decades.
