    BLUEXIT
    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    I'm surprised it was only by 20. hrc is hated by white dims in Louisiana almost as much as she is hated by dims in AK. The only dims in Louisiana that would've voted for her were black dims and most of them didn't bother to vote she was so despicable a candidate. I'd say hrc did quite well losing by only 20.

    Most all colleges are if you're not in a STEM major. A four yr. vacation. Look at Stacey Abrams graduating in Interdisciplinary Studies from a Spelman College, lol. I took a Sociology elective one semester because the rest of my classes were extremely tough and I needed the 3 credits to give me 18 . The only time I went to that class was to take the tests and I still aced it.
