     Avoid? Dive in, I say!

     Tell Uncle Homophobe he’s a perv for obsessing about how someone pees!

     Call cousin SSPanzer88 the fucking Nazi that he is!

     Remind racist Granny that she wants to round up nice family 2 houses over that bring her meals and who’s sweet 12 year old cuts her lawn.

     Call the bigots and fascists out this Thanksgiving and avoid the hassle next year!

     @bigheadtales Tell me you didn't read the post without telling me you didn't read the post.

     @WarnerCrocker It's not that, it's that I have a different approach. Soprry to barge in, though.

     @bigheadtales Same here. Again, maybe kidding myself, put when the conversation comes back around (as it inevitably does) from some other relative or friend playing middle ground or peacemaker, I would like to believe that both sides recognize equal culpability in the severing.

     @WarnerCrocker Very true! I admit, I'm naturally bull headed and somewhat of an antagonist.

     I know a number of people who have cut off friends and families; no longer able to stomach their bigotry and hate.

     @bigheadtales Perhaps, but I'm pretty much a cynical old SOB and have reached the point where playing polite takes more energy than I want to expend.

     @WarnerCrocker You are far more optimistic about human nature than I am, I'm afraid.
