    That’s fair. I simply believe the degree of separation is in the low single digits.

      And I’m sure that’s true to your personal experience. But I hope you’ll accept that for millions of Americans, we feel like one side wants to criminalize our very existence and way of life, and one side does not. Corruption aside, which I can agree is rampant across the spectrum, one side is openly questioning whether entire groups of people should be allowed to live out their lives enjoying the same freedoms as the rest of us, and that, for me, is important.
