Where do I begin? We have a president who can't seem to condemn hate groups. Children are becoming increasingly violent, our media only shows what they want us to see and no I am not a conspiracy theorist. Today's music seems to feminizing men lets wear pants sooo tight i can't sit down? What is really going on? Instead of us coming together as one country and pushing out the negative we are turning on our trouble, makes me wonder is the US the modern day Babylon?

Trump and all of those other things are symptoms, not causes. Replace the president and we're still going to have these problems. It's been escalating for at least 40 years, maybe longer.

When did our President not condemn Hate Groups..Did you even listen to what he said....In his first speech right after the incident.....
The President of the United States said: “We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence, on many sides. On many sides. It’s been going on for a long time in our country.
He added: “Above all else, we must remember this truth – no matter our color, creed, religion or political party, we are all Americans first.”
He also said.. there had been “fine people” protesting the removal of Confederate symbols....I am in no way a Nazi, or KKK ...And i stand in protest of the removal of any of our Historic statues.....
Our President also tweeted Condolences to the family of the young woman killed today, and best regards to all of those injured, in Charlottesville, Virginia. So sad!
I just met with FBI Director Christopher Wray and Attorney General Jeff Sessions. The Department of Justice has opened a civil rights investigation into the deadly car attack that killed one innocent American and wounded 20 others. To anyone who acted criminally in this weekend’s racist violence, you will be held fully accountable. Justice will be delivered.
Donald J. Trump
And as I have said many times before: No matter the color of our skin, we all live under the same laws, we all salute the same great flag, and we are all made by the same almighty God. We must love each other, show affection for each other, and unite together in condemnation of hatred, bigotry, and violence. We must rediscover the bonds of love and loyalty that bring us together as Americans.
Donald J. Trump
Racism is evil. And those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including the KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans.
How many times do you need to hear him say that he condemns these groups...All of them.....before you actually here it..or do you just listen to what the media is telling you to hear....
All the rest i agree with you on.......

I am confused also with music feminizing men and tight pants. I think we have become a spoiled nation and a spoiled brat who now seems to show his true colors as a racist is definitely running the show which is very troubling.
Not sure men are becoming more feminine and not sure why some women say such things because seems to me all I ever hear about from women is that they want their man to be more sensitive if that is what you are talking about. Many Men seem more like macho jerks, and jokes more to me than ever. There used to be decency in this country and there is nothing feminine for a man to be that.

We are in deeper than ever due to Trump. He is an immature fool with the ego of a ten year old bully.

I agree with you there, especially about media. Media does more to run this country than any politician ever did. Free speech is one thing, but polarizing popular opinion is another.

What President are you talking about? If you are talking about Trump he does condemn hate groups. The media tells lies about every country and make up news and do not report the facts because they do not know them. The media just prints what they want and not the truth.

I agree . I ask myself ‘what is this country becoming’ every single day .
First let me say , I am not racist , I do not favor any particular “group” .
I am a VERY proud republican & I’m not afraid to express it . I honestly believe that Obama has let everybody believe that violence , etc ... is acceptable . Why do I say that ? Well , what did he do to fix the problem ? Think about it .
Also , a lot of the hate for Trump has to do with how individuals are acting or ‘expressing’ themselves now . Trump isn’t going to let things fly by like Obama did . I truly believe he wants to fix our country & let us all live a wonderful life with no more violence . I do believe he wants to help our country come together as one .
And please , DO NOT get me started on the riots & protests that have been going on lately ...

The hate for Trump has to do with how HE acts and how HE'S been "expressing" himself for decades and in particular on the day he announced, throughout the campaign and since he's been in our White House. He considers the majority of Americans his enemies, he cares only about the white people who voted for and still support him.

no matter who the leader of this country is , nothing is going to get better . the stocks , they broke the record the other day - first time in years . so you cant say he isnt doing anything for our country . we cant change the outcome , so therefore we just have to deal with it .
