Hatred is a universal concept and something so minor as a different skin color, religion, nationality or political point of view sparks the ugliest of human behavior. American politics has recently once again taken a turn toward demonization of individuals instead of debate of differences...I pray we don't have such a travesty here!

Get off your soapbox, Nancy.
