They scream when we say Nazi, but...

Someone posted that cartoon pic of Obama crying like a baby on FB, and of course there were plenty of negative replies. One said something demeaning about the artist.
The OP came back with:

You F'n worthless "untermenschen" Shut your F'n cock holster and mind your own business.

I didn't know the term so looked it up. Apparently it was a common word used by Nazis during that era, meaning to denigrate people who they regarded as less than human.

He ranted at another reply, saying that he had the skill and the means to hunt him down and kill him.

Totally unhinged, and yet I bet he can purchase guns in any store in the country.

We need to copy the successful tactics of the Repub Party. We have to admit the hard truth that their 8 years of obstruction got them EVERY DAMNED THING THEY WANTED including stealing a SCOTUS seat. We must be angrier and louder than the Tea party idiots, call out tRump for every single lie he tells, and ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS put an asterisk next to his name. The Repubs have shown us a successful model of how to gain power - - we must follow it, win, and change the rules so that every American once again has a voice.

the one sad thing about not taking the Senate is that the filibuster is likely to be killed off. Harry Reid weakened it as majority leader, and I knew it might come back to bite us. Prepare to be bitten...
