Yeah and I have to say my brother who is one of the most open minded unbiased people I know! ( that statement might be biased lol but I believe it to be true) has always blogged and tried to create conversations. Real conversation about what is going on and even the people that disagreed had great discussion. I always looked forward to them because I always learned facts and opinions from many sides. As of lately those same people have jumped to attack him for trying to do the same thing with all this political stuff. It's so sad to see him so disheartened that he just says why bother anymore. There is no more conversation it is only attack and calling him names. It's truly sad to see someone who only tries to find common ground on all sides of the coin ripped to shreds. I have a feeling he has given up on trying to open conversation after probably 20 years of doing so. The only good thing out of all of this is he is teaching his kids to always do what's right. NOT what's easy. As am I
