I had to drop 4, and they're all from rural areas.

It's really better that way. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, while open asshattery removes all possibilities of that.

(10,572 posts)One, but it was him blocking me. I don't post political things on my Facebook - however, on election night I posted for each marriage equality win. He's a homophobe and couldn't handle it. Oh well, I dont need people like that in my life.

(2,431 posts)...despite the level of passion in the argument, we always managed to keep it respectful and hate-free. I know one guy who's been silent since Tuesday, but most of my crowd was already for Obama or undecided. I know for a fact I swayed many of these.
