Politics, while once a lively debate, have become the ultimate litmus test when determining wether two people are compatible. Even myself, when hearing that an older friend and her husband are a liberal and a conservative respectively, was shocked. "How does that work?" I wondered.
Truth be told, political parties do not make us different species, unable to exist together peacefully. Rather, people's reactions make it impossible to simply BE RESPECTFUL. Understandably, presidential race years come with a lot of emotions and strong beliefs. Does that give anyone of any party the right to say that the other party should die? Does one party have the right to shame another in ANY way? They are called "parties" for a reason... RELAX, have some chips, and be tolerant of others.
