That gives us hope. When u think about it, these losers sewing mayhem are a very small group of people relative to 330 million. They could be squashed like a bug if politically expedient.
Norfolk is different because of the Navy . Most people here fly the American flag on there front porch , I would guess there are more liberals here with firearms than Republicans. Just by the numbers default . My extremely liberal neighbor went out and bought small American flags and put one in the corner of each each on both sides of the street . Her yard was the only one that had 3 in it so that’s how I know who did it before I asked her . Lol . It’s like everyone here is making a conscious effort not to be political this time . Zero Biden signs , zero Trump signs .
Well I would if thought the opposite really as I figured the military to be more pro Trump than lib. Surprised.
Then what separates us from them..social issues?Norfolk specific is heavy liberal . That being said it’s a different liberal than what we see on the media , they love their military , their country and their 2a .its an odd mixture . They hate Trump . I’d also add that no mask means Rs or Trumpers is a bold face lie . We are surrounded by liberals not wearing a mask .
Then what separates us from them..social issues?
This is definitely the case. I’ve been up and down from Wilmington to Georgetown for the past few months and there’s a lot of that.I’ve spent some time on the intracoastal this summer. At least in North Carolina it seems like there’s a Trump flag flying on at least half the docks from Shallotte to Wilmington. Boats everywhere you look w Trump flags.

A friend sent me this the other day, and it stopped me in my tracks. She lives in an affluent neighborhood in a red state with purple demographics. A family in her neck of the woods planted a Trump sign on their lawn, prompting an unnamed neighbor to leave a shockingly contemptuous and self-righteous letter at their home. If we become a country where electoral preferences are used as proxies to determine the humanity, or inherent goodness or evil, of individual voters, we are in serious trouble. I've read this note at least five times at this point, and I still cannot fathom the mindset required to pen it, let alone deliver it:
Notice the projection at play here. The hate and anger harbored by this anonymous pen pal toward people with whom she or he disagrees are attributed to the occupants of the Trump sign house. They are made out to be bad people with "prejudice and hate" in their hearts toward strangers when it's the author who is actually telling on herself or himself. "You hold no charity or grace in your heart," this person asserts, based on nothing other than what this person thinks they know about...nearly half the country. The sign off -- "neighbors who dare to be different" -- is downright amusing. In modern American society, it takes very little courage to oppose Donald Trump. Every taste-making institution does so. Wokesters like this miserable author are pampered, catered to, indulged, and affirmed by the media, the entertainment industry, the academy -- and to an increasing extent, corporate America.

The obvious way to handle this is to write a letter and post it in the same spot as the anonymous letter. This is what that letter should say,
Dear neighbor,
Thank you for taking the time to peacefully exercise your 1st Amendment right to freedom of speech.
Now, please go **** yourself and the horse you rode in on.
Have a nice day!
Me

The crackers all have Trump signs and flags up. Even saw one class act with a '**** Your Feelings' Sticker.
However, i've seen Biden signs in places i never thought id see them. Rural America. Even saw one in Maryville, the most conservative place on Earth.
I know all of my Republican family is fed up with his junk. Middle of road America is voting for Biden.
When Mad Dog Mathis spurns a Republican. Id say that's a sign.
