Not everyone...

 In our current national climate, there is a tendency to label nearly everyone by extremes. This is usually done to make an emphatic point about one’s personal beliefs. It is never helpful and nearly always inflammatory.  It polarizes us rather than promotes working together toward a common good.

Not Everyone…

·        Not everyone who votes progressive or Democrat is a baby killer.

·        Not everyone who believes in immigration laws and secure borders hates immigrants.

·        Not everyone who believes in traditional one man, one woman marriage is homophobic.

·        Not everyone who opposed Obama and his policies is racist.

·        Not everyone who supported Bernie Sanders is a communist.

·        Not everyone who chooses to march or demonstrates is a hoodlum.

·        Not everyone who voted for Hillary Clinton hates Republicans.

·        Not everyone who voted for Donald Trump hates Democrats and Progressives.

·        Not everyone who votes Democrat is going to hell.

·        Not everyone who votes Republican is misogynist, and racist.

·        Not everyone who owns or carries a gun believes in violence.

·        Not everyone who believes the Second Amendment is wrong is a communist.

·        Not everyone who does not embrace global warming is anti-science.

·        Not everyone who wears a mask for health purposes is uninformed and manipulated.

·        Not everyone who supports Black Lives Matter is a radical Marxist.

·        Not everyone who does not support Black Lives Matter is racist.

EVERYONE who lives in the USA is a valuable person and is free to embrace the candidates, personal beliefs, public policies and politics of their choice.  It would serve us all to treat each other as such.
