[QUOTE="AKCoverMan, post: 4626294, member: 17867"] Perhaps, just as a start, people with differing views on say, I don’t know, maybe an online forum like BC, might possibly discuss these views in a civil and polite fashion. Who knows, perhaps actually find some common ground on an issue and work from there. Perhaps, and I know this will sound waaaaay out there, but just perhaps we could not view everyone on “The Other Side” as a monster to be defeated at all cost but rather as our neighbor, friend, and fellow countryman that deserves a right to be heard as much as we do. I know, it’s a crazy idea. But think about this.. at some time in your life we have all been with a large group of people perhaps at a sporting event, or a concert, who knows.... and at some point something happens and the whole crowd goes wild. Think along lines of home team scoring the winning run or something. Your in that crowd all screaming and cheering as one. Half those people are people you probably disagree with on political issues. But your cheering with them. Maybe they aren’t the monsters we made them out to be? [/QUOTE]
