text: Republicans recruited the racists that compose the GOP base. They finally have their leader to follow. Their greatest achievement in life is managing to be born white. They are angry about losing the white privilege they claim does not exist. They think they are victims. They are just victims of their choices in life. No one is forcing them to live in coal country. No one is forcing them to be high school drop outs or having children out of wed lock. No one is forcing their relatives to become drug addicts. No one is forcing them to live in depressed rural areas. They are the only demographic dying younger. They are killing themselves with their behaviors. I would pity them if they weren't armed and think killing minorities will solve their problems. They are more likely to use their guns in a murder suicide of their loved ones, than stopping a mass shooter in a mall. Being ignorant is not a good plan for success in the 21st century.
