These people seriously need their butts kicked.

Jeebuz Cripes these Leftists are the biggest narcissists on the planet...

We are thinking about what to do with our daughter.

She was very sweet, but very naive. She’ll be home for Christmas. We live in California. She knows how dirty it’s gotten. She knows she can’t afford to live here.

If she starts protesting, then we will pull all financial support.

I pray that your daughter sees the light.

But yesterday, in the span of just a few hours, I was called "worthless," "idiot," "socialist turd," "cry baby," "loser," "dumb," "whiny" and "Marxist," among other things, simply for exercising my First Amendment right to peaceably assemble. (And those were just the nice ones I could put in this post.)

So while you clutch to the right to protest against the incoming President of the United States that your detractors supported, with signs claiming he is a rapist, a bigot, racist, and homophobic, you disdain their right to free speech...And now you whine about it...

Problem is you likely know everything they said about you is true...

I read the replies at the article, what a bunch of ignorant, hateful, minds full of mush are commenting there. They have no idea at all of the way the government was set up and really feel that since Hillary ‘got the most votes’ that she should be the president. No understanding at all.

The author of the article is such a whiny baby, she got yelled at and called names, Boohoohoohoo. At least she wasn’t treated like conservatives are. No one bit off her ear, carjacked her, chased her down and beat her up, threw eggs and other items at her or any of the other things conservatives have had happen when they were supporting our candidate.

Does this person hate me too? ...probably, honey, but it's not for what you look like. It's because you're an insufferably pompous liberal ass.

This article is saddening.

I try very hard not to inflict my politics on my children. Kids should be kids, they've got plenty of years as adults to worry about politics.

And I'd never, ever take them to a political protest. Even the tea parties, which were perfectly safe, I completely agreed with, and were really more like church services than protests. Kids should never be used as props.

But the author can't see past her own narcissism to recognize that.
