What this reveals is a much larger truth. And that is we have a lot of people in our society right now and in our region right now, we have a lot of people with just completely empty vessels that used to be their soul.

Because nature abhors a vacuum you have to fill that emptiness that used to be your soul with something. A lot of people are filling it with this poison that is social media.

It’s just revealing truths about an awful lot of people. I understand disagreeing with the president – I disagreed mightily with President Obama – I never would have wished him ill or dead. I hope that I never become that person.
