re: #261 Stanley Sea

Be careful dismissing them as sick in the head. It’s becoming a bit more mainstream. And Ben has helped in his hateful rhetoric, I’m sad to say.

Stuff like THAT is not mainstream nor is it becoming so. It’s Trump: His ability to violate normal taboos and norms with impunity is encouraging others to so violate.

To put a NYPD angle on it, Donald Trump has become a huge ‘Broken Window’, and unless and until he is somehow punished for his bad behavior his example is going to encourage other bad behavior.
