Seriously...Why isn't the Secret Service raiding the Republican Convention?

Is this what we have come to?

Stories of at least two Republican delegates calling for executing Secretary Clinton, one who apparently is a "fucking airline pilot"?????

Talks of "purging" government employees that aren't Republican sycophants?

Jailing political enemies?

WTF is this place? A fucking Banana Republic? A dictatorship? A repressive religious regime?

When are sane Republicans (if there are any), going to speak up?

Who will stand up and put country above party?

Fuck, if this is what we end up with, I don't fucking want to live in this country anymore.

This freak show is "effing" horrific and terrifying.

Republicans are too disgusted to attend. There are no adults there to tell the children to behave.

how good country's go bad - succumbing to fear and hate -
and manipulation by greedy power hungry narcissists.
It's here for us on TV.

It's not just a Nazi thing - it's happened many times in many places
and now it's happening here. The question I have... are we
just as powerless as those others as this wave of republican
fascism and bigotry threatens to drown us? Or can we beat these
monsters back into their dark caves?

When I saw the entrance that the Orange Ape made the other night I thought it was a spoof. Haven't heard much of anything that the Orange Ape will do for this country. It's just every form of Hillary Hate x 100.

Now there may be crazy people watching who are "inspired" to actually try to carry out what those fools are calling for, and that's why the Secret Service is around her. I wouldn't put myself in that position for the world.
