Same here. I never thought I'd see the country come to this. I live in Florida, not far from the nut job that was picked up recently that said he was wanting to kill liberals in their sleep at night and threatened government officials on Facebook. He was picked up by the Polk County Sheriff. My wife is Canadian by birth and I'm trying to convince her to let's pick up and move to Canada. She should be able to move back and get me in too. I don't even like to go out any more for fear some idiot will get mad at the check out line because I have a 12 pack of beer in the 10 items or less isle and starts shooting up the place. This is not the country I grew up in. I didn't even recognize over half my classmates from Ohio when I went back to my last high school reunion and how they had become so radicalized over Trump. You never would have known then as the idealistic youth they were when we were in high school. This is a scary country...
