Yep, the debate in my own made up hashtags based on watching twitter during the debate. The moderator was great, this was closer to an actual debate, there were no handshakes. I think I got most of it.

I have tried to stay fairly quiet on the internet because I’ve had enough awesome conversation about politics in face to face conversations, but now I just want to be clear. I’m horrified at the comments I have heard in the debates. Saying that all the Syrian refugees are ISIS supporters makes me have angry tears. Comparing the Roe v. Wade discussion to women ripping fetuses out 1, 2, 3 or 4 days before the “end” is not OK. He has no experience dealing with foreign policy. He seems confused about how our government works every time he attacks HRC about why she didn’t change the law. Using one example to generalize an entire group of people is not OK.

I’ve said it’s become too emotional for me and that’s still true. I can barely handle a normal person conversation about this.

Here is where I stand:

I support all the women who have had to make hard decisions about their body. Oh yeah, and women everywhere. I can’t even believe that these topics are still on the table.

I support all the people who are running from a terrifying situation in their home countries. The whole world is dealing with this refugee crisis and it needs to be talked about.

I support a “no fly, no buy” restriction… but personally, I would like all guns to go away (in my fairytale land with unicorns.)

I support all my neighbors in this great city – we don’t shoot each other on the way to the store and we have great people in our neighborhood and our city. We are all humans and we all deserve respect and love and kindness.

I support humanity, respect, equal rights. I also support democracy, so buckle up – here we go.

I will be exercising my right to vote on Nov 8. I hope you all take the time to read, learn, ask questions and get to know all the names on your ballot. President is not the only thing we are voting for. I could go on and on and on and on, but I’ll leave it here:

Less than three weeks friends. Stay cool, be respectful and vote. We have to survive this crazy election and learn something from it.
