Someone saying they're a woman, when they were born as a male, does not make it so. Saying you're a Republican doesn't mean you actually are, if your policies are almost exclusively aligned with the other party. If Kasich doesn't want to support the ideals of the Republican party, he's welcome to run as an independent. Of course, he would never do that, because he doesn't want to give up that sweet campaign money from the RNC.

You're the one who keeps bringing up the mentally unstable, and saying you can understand how their immoral actions would be considered "morally justifiable". Even if you're saying it's from their perspective, surely you can understand how that would rub many of us the wrong way, especially when those actions are taken against conservatives.

If an extremist tried to blow up your hero Bernie Sanders, and someone here said they could understand how the extremist's views were considered "morally justifiable", wouldn't you take exception to that? Of course, none of us would actually say/write that, because we would find his actions to be completely repugnant.

I'm not getting the middle of anything, you two can sort it out yourselves.
