[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For all of you who think that this woman is just mentally disturbed - I think you need to get outside of your bubble. I have a "friend" who is EXACTLY like this. She is someone I knew from my college days, who I am still friends with on FB but rarely ever see.

This woman lives in a suburb of Montgomery county (down 270 - think exit 13ish), a WFHM, she is super active in her kids' schools (room parent)  - born and raised close to where she lives now. She has always been opinionated and had no problem expressing herself. She frequently would say outrageous things - but back when we hung out socially it was never racist. However, over the last few years she has increasingly put more and more racists and anti-muslim posts on her FB page. She posted about the Rockville illegal immigrant student acussed of rape (charges now dropped) and used it as an excuse to rail against immigration policies. She hates Obama and hates Hillary even more. She would UNQUESTIONABLY be the type of person to do something just like this. She is sane, she is respected in her little bubble and she is teaching her three kids to be racist just like her.

You guys need to know that there are many people out there just like her. They may not live in downtown DC but they don't all live in Kansas or Ohio either. Don't fool yourself that someone has to be mentally ill to pull this off.

If you are wondering why I'm still following her on FB - it's because I really want to know what people like her are thinking. I want to understand how we can be so fundamentally different. This is a person I used to genuinely like. I still don't have any answers but wanted to share - she's not crazy and she's not alone.

I think I know this woman too - though I was unclear if she had gone to college so maybe not.
Her DH is a doctor? Did she move to Ga? She's a sahm but is rabidly angry if 'people' get benefits like healthcare when they haven't 'earned it'.
What the hell has she earned? She's more valuable than someone who works in a service industry job or who works PT - because why?
Because she married a doctor?!! Her 3 beautiful sweet kids are absorbing all the hateful crap. Only the churches  can give out money  :roll: (except for anything they disagree with which is everything). 
I turned her off on FB but I turn her back on when I want to feel the hate.[/quote]

You people sound just as bad as the woman/friend you berate!  So judgmental!  Types like you are the reason Trump got elected.  Go back to your bubble in Bethesda, where you will not have to deal with people up by exit 13 (heaven forbid!), or the illegals that you so proudly praise for lawbreaking.  it is behavior like yours that will lead to this country demise!
