1. You gotta ask? Race relations were improving at a glacial place, but at least improving. Until now.

3. True there were women shot recently after they self identified as a Democrats while those who

said they were Republicans were not shot. But I think POC are targeted more.

5. it IS going to worsen

white bigots, especially in 'open carry and CCW states are very aggressive, men and women, when driving. Trying to provoke a road rage situation where "they can feel threatened". I drive the roads, all over my area, everyday. They see you're brown they want to kill. Trump, bannon, miller, ivanka and jared told the racists and bigots during the campaign and everyday since that it is okay. And don't believe for one moment the head nazi bannon isn't still influencing the boy-potus and the direction this country is going. What a fucked up country, NOW!!!!! BIG TIME!!!! All I can say is they want wild, wild west, okay? Protect yourselves by all means necessary. Fuck civility.....these cretins don't know the meaning of the word.

6. It is very frightening...my daughter had a scare recently where some guy in a Trump hat

blocked her and screamed at her because her lights were to bright...I told her he was lucky had I been in the car and he approached me, I would have run him over...your car is a your best weapon.
