TweetSame here I just stay away from it all myself bro but this year no matter what time of day or channel TV or radio it's all bs politics this year just can't escape it

TweetIt is just another thing some are passionate about than others. To me, it is no different then one arguing over something else. We didn't really get as involved in politics till our 40's, and when I became active in a much smaller version of 'politics' in my community.. I didn't even vote until back when Obama was first running. the beauty of anything is if you don't like it you don't have to look at it or take part in it. Me, I could care less what others opinions are whether it be politics, religion, or whatever. At this stage of my life. and the shape this country is, I am much more concerned about the future for the children in our world. If I had a personal FB, I would most likely have about 5 friends, lol. I enjoy FB and seeing what others opinions are. As far as them acting like kids, we see that all over social media.

TweetAs far as true nature, we only know people so much, whom we connect with on line. In fact some of us have gotten to know some who really weren't who they claimed to be behind the screen. Who really knows. All I know is I yam who I yam and that's all that I yam,lol

TweetWell , if its Hillary vs Trump is anyone even going to want to vote anyway ? lol

What's worse is they ralley the troops, usually younger and more easily influenced people to show them how "dumb" one candidate is vs another. not sure why people waste so much time in a topic they can do so little about.

Need to disagree with your premise: Not to be political shows that you are dismissing one of the two most important things that effects your life. All the other thing talk about on face book and or all other social media is nonsense. People get intense because we have been taught a lie not to discuss Religion and Politics and those two topics that are the most important.

Respectfully Believe We All Need To Be Involved.

You missed the point completely....... My point was normally rational people resort to name calling and childish behavior. Passion is one thing but so many go beyond it. As far as believing we make a difference.... To each his own.

I will let it go because this is your thread. The only way to interrupt your opening statement is a belittling of those who care about a very important process in our nation. Calling them children and seemly intelligent (stupid). I am one of those people and very proud of it and disagree with your statement totally.
I will not post on this thread again hoping you miss spoke and are unaware of what an important time we face in our nation.

I hear what you are saying but to me FB is hardly a place to judge who is intelligent and/or rational. Our country is in a terrible place, made worse over the past years, with Obama in charge. This is bringing out all kinds of feelings within people. Subjects like these can always get heated, but if they get brought up, then people should respect other's opinions...imo,lol.

Only way it can be interpreted is the way I wrote it. I know exactly what I was saying. How could anyone take offense to what I said.... When people resort to name calling and childish behavior its underwhelming. I admire passion and good debate. I dislike unthought full mud slinging. Not sure what you don't understand about that. It's pretty clear and needs no further interpretation.

TweetThis is why I don't read a lot of that nonsense on FB . When I see that going on, I don't even bother with it.

Tweeti can sum it up pretty easily when it comes to both sides: the left says they are all about love tolerance and taking care of the poor and less fortunate. yet the are some of the most hateful anger filled people you will ever meet. the right on the other hand preach the old way of respectful traditional non progressive beliefs. this is more of i dont want the gov involved in 99% of their lives they want religion at the forefront(for the most part) but can be somewhat angry but usually offer solutions that are mathmatically senseable for the most part.

i personally love a good debate myself as long as their is substance and solutions from both sides but the sad fact of the matter that i have discovered is this: you cant argue with a liberal 99% of the time even when you can put facts right in front of their face. myself personally i dont understand how people can back either side due to the lack of action and blatant corruption that is rampant in our gov. to me they are all dirty

Tweetshit if you were around here in 2008 and 2012 I was all over politics. I just decided to watch and listen but I still will debate anyone who thinks Trump is the one. He is a friggin Idiot
