Because the Republican convention was going to be such a peaceful and orderly affair...

The most interesting part of that article is the manner in which the author uses the opinion of the NRA as equivalent to established fact.

There's a lot of talk that this started out as a troll, but picked up speed as people started signing it. That might explain some of the language and the way it's used.

Oh, just like the Trump candidacy?

I just love how the guy writes HUSSEIN in all caps. Just to make things clear.

Yeah especially how on their main candidates now is RAFAEL Edward Cruz.

When some Mexicans fly a plane into the Statue of Liberty, then those names may have equivalent stigma attached.

Seems a lot of conservatives are pretty upset about the Hispanics as it is.

I found this article about how the Republican party lost sight of the issues its voters care about rather interesting:

Why would a name of one of God's archangels carry a stigma among Christian voters? 

What are you going to do next? Complain about the candidates named "Michael"?

Yeah, pretty much. For years people on the left and center of US politics have been complaining that American white blue collar workers do not vote in accordance with their own interests - now they act surprised when they have finally started to.

Trump is in turn using these people like a passed around abuse victim.

That would be fun too.

The current international status quo needs to be upended, I don't think Sanders could do it but Trump is crazy enough to do it.

Dear Hod. Why? Why does the status quo need to be shattered? Not enough wars and death out there for you?

[Grey Fox]

Because it is currently world destroying on both human & nature scales?
