If you can only talk divisively and dismiss the concerns of people who don't agree with you, then you will continue to harm the unity of this country. Even if we don't agree with one another, we still should be able to live with one another peacefully. That is not to say stop protesting and engaging people. It means that people need to stop over generalizing and practice some empathy with others. It means not demonizing people who don't agree with you and sometimes it means just walking away instead of taking the swing.

I think of Mr. Rogers a lot these days and how he called everyone his neighbor. In a sense, we live in a world now where we actually all can be neighbors. And good neighbors don't treat each other like enemies.

If people truly believe that "Love Trumps Hate" and that's not just a slogan, people need to start acting that way.
