You are being so honest and sincere here, and it rings so true. Most people (myself included) hide behind a mask of opinions and partisanship and positions. Human beings are a little more complex than that.
I say let's support each other. Let's be suspicious of that which sets us at each other's throats. Let's give room for people to breathe, to be more honest and open, to take more chances with each other.
