One of the down sides of social media is being exposed to the stupidity that is floating around in the world. If not for social media, I could acknowledge that such existed, but not actually have to see it.
The shooting in Charleston has brought out some truly stupid crap in my facebook feed. One person had been dropped a couple of years ago because he decided he need to pick a fight with me over guns. Tonight, he popped up on my company's facebook just to be a jerk. I know him well enough to know that he just wanted to incite a fight. He'd posted several "pro gun" bits/responses to the Charleston shooting, and then turned his sights on our page. His desire to pick a fight just resulted in his irrelevant comment being deleted. Sadly, our policies prevent us from blocking him from our feed . . . yet.
Then, on my personal page, someone's totally ignorant screed about the confederate flag got her unfriended. If EVEN Lindsey Graham and Mitt Romney have realized that there are no points to be scored by continuing to cling to the "stars and bars" . . . then shouldn't the morons of the planet follow?
Sheesh.
