That's all it takes.

But we, collectively, are getting away from that. Liberalism isn't based on that noble sentiment you posted, it's based on the phrase "if it feels good, do it". Our moral compass is badly broken, and it's getting more broken, not less. The people who treat others wickedly are portrayed as victims, and suddenly, the cops are the bad guys. Not long ago, anyone who said that, would have been laughed at. Today, if you disagree with that, you are a racist.

Neither one of the presidential candidates is remotely qualified to fix what's broken. One isn't as godawful as the other, but neither is anywhere near what we need.

We can't even agree that those born with a wee-wee should shower in the boys locker room. I remember the good old days (last year if I'm not mistaken) when no one was up in arms over such a simple concept. I have no idea what unites us as a country anymore.
