    I suspect the USA is transitioning from a well-intentioned nation, one with respect for tradition and history and government for all, to a severely divided nation with preference for a dictatorship run by an idiot. This did not happen overnight! This ignorance and righteousness and divisive mentality has been around forever...the only difference today is we elected a president who as Robert D Niro says 'is a piece of ****', who possesses the same righteousness and ignorance, and in becoming poster-boy, has signaled to millions of so-called Americans to show their true colors. Good luck changing this new path...

    Yep, that's why I hope to see the US agree to dissolve most of the Federal Government and operate instead as Independent States. First and foremost, the office of President has to go. This is no longer one nation. I won't live in the country they want. And I'm not leaving my home.

    I've written many times that I believe HUMANS have basically and collectively reached their full potential. Today we are incapable of solving mid to complex issues, and worse yet, we are incapable of rational public discussion. We can no longer 'think' through complex issues to arrive at viable solutions that will advance all of society. No wonder to me why dictatorships can succeed...

    Actually, I expect to see the West Coast become its own nation; with the sixth largest economy in the world. Other States may wish to join us. But the three Coastal States for sure. I sometimes wonder if the notion of the City-State is worth considering, for the largest cities. Cities and rural areas don't require the same laws and are generally dissimilar cultures.

    At the core of it, we don't share the same values anymore. The day I saw a trump crowd cheering for mass murder and torture, I nearly threw up. I honestly couldn't believe what I was seeing and hearing. For the next two years, just the sight of a flag made me feel sick. It was like an Orwellian nightmare coming to life.

    There are no solutions to the culture war. We don't want the same country.

    Cite sources for just five murders of transgenders. They have a profoundly high suicide rate and obviously are off the charts in clinical depression for obvious reasons, but the alphabet queer community will NEVER stop being activist.
    They went from "what happens in the bedroom is private" to parading down San Francisco in daylight, nearly nude and mocking normal men and women and Christians in particular. Sick, absolutely sick.

    Follow Robert DeNiro, whose name you can't even spell correctly. Follow the Hollywood Ignorati, who prey on young girls and boys and celebrate homosexuality, and protect rapists. Follow filthy rich Eco-Hypocrites who preach Climate Change Sharia and then get into their Lear Jets and yachts. Ignorance, self-righteousness and divisive mentality are proper terms, but your three fingers point in the correct direction, not your index finger, Mister Leftist.

    Nowhere near as sick as evangelical "christians" beating and killing gays.

    At one time it was mental illness and my dads stepbrother use to get a Social Security check for it, right up until it was declared not....he was upset and spent the rest of his life working at a Sinclair Service Station.

    If you bothered to read the link you would have discovered that ALL of them involved the DEATHS of gays and MANY of those were caused by lethal violence with baseball bats.

    Your FAILURE to even read the link is YOUR problem because it does NOT alter the FACT that this deadly violence against gays does occur.

    Ironic trying to be "holier than thou" while belonging to the religion of pedophile priests, abortion hypocrites, deniers of Constitutional rights to the LBGT community and ardent supporters of the adulterous BLOTUS.

    i really cannot image the circumstances where you would be required to see the mutilated remains of the genitals of this...alien.

    As others have pointed out, this person seems weird to all of us.
    Then again, have we ever heard of weird heterosexual people? Ummm, yeah. So there are weird people of all stripes.... i have even heard rumors of some fairly weird evangelical preachers.... go figure.

    The thing i do not understand in your attitude.... why do you apparently care so much about this individual?????

    FWIW, I recently had a related experience. I was in a bank line, waiting for a teller.... i heard what sounded like a mans voice, but there were no men around. After looking more carefully, i noticed the petite and very feminine asian teller that i was waiting for had an adams apple,

    OK, i admit it was a little disconcerting.... but other than that, why should i care? As long as this person does her job, why does it matter? And that is a question for you: Why does it matter?

    There are all sorts of things in life that i do not understand... including transsexualism, But i also do not understand quantum physics and string theory. i have been able to cope with that, I don’t understand why i should get pushed outa shape because some people are transgender.

    Some people (through no choice of their own) are born with both male and female genitalia.... i don’t understand that either, but it doesn't keep me awake at night, None of my business. Why is it your business?

    Actually, it's Robert De Niro, and I don't follow him...I was quoting something he said.
    Please provide a link that states Hollywood collectively is ignorant?
    Please provide a link that states Hollywood preys on young girls and boys?
    Please provide a link that states Hollywood celebrates homosexuality?
    Please provide a link that states Hollywood protects rapists?
    What percentage of the US population do you believe own jets and yachts?
    Please explain how traveling on a jet or yacht is not acceptable?
    You believe if a person believes in climate change they can no longer fly in airplanes or ride in boats? What about driving cars or mowing a lawn?
    Why do you mention Sharia with zero context? Sharia is nothing but a religious law like Christianity and perhaps over 1 billion people follow it...are all 1+ billion people doing the wrong thing in your eyes?

    Certainly honesty and facts are not part of your requirements to be a good citizen. Let's be clear about your comments above; they are either lies or 100% fabricated...not an ounce of honesty or facts...right?

    I'm also not a leftist and having you try to define who I am, someone you don't even know, it also a lie.

    With all of this you probably feel good about yourself...you are racist and xenophobic and you lie then you share your diatribe as if it represents any sense of reality. And you pretend to be patriotic? Can't you see where you might be a tad bit misguided?

    Although there can be some rationale for doing this, it's unlikely this will ever happen. However, when I think about another civil war, this time between the west coast and the red states, your idea seems more feasible. At a minimum I would like to see a stronger coalition of the three states to establish more power at the federal level...
