I saw this public Facebook post after the elections from a guy named Jim Skelton; it read:
“Republicans lost the house last night. Today there are no riots, no protests, no videos of large groups of voters sobbing uncontrollably, no grief counselors were sent to schools, no celebrities threatening to move to Canada, no property was destroyed, no cars overturned and nothing set on fire.
No outrage. No drama. Life goes on even if you didn’t get what you wanted. Let’s hope that others can learn from this example.”
I’ll be honest here: I don’t have much hope that those “others” will learn from this. I hope I’m wrong.
