that fear is what drives a lot of these people to groups like that. So yeah, it's right below the surface, a little scratch exposes it.

and that is all these people are. Neurotic, insecure bullies who look for protection in a group and status in their hate of others.

There have been exactly two times I felt happy and relaxed in a large group.

1. At a Star Trek convention. I was surrounded by thousands of people who shared my love of a TV show and the idea behind it.

2. Jacky Rosen's Henderson office open house.

Neither had anything to do with hating anyone. We were united in a happier future that included everyone.
