<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Just to be sure that I understand the
full context of this post, it appears that Mr. Hansen has created
a diagram that suggests that Republicans make a platform using
Bunsen burners as fear to cook ignorance into hate? <br>
<br>
That seems to be a very hateful position for anyone to take
regarding the millions of people it refers to (I doubt he knows
many of them personally. It certainly is accomplishing nothing
positive to enhance the opportunity for a conversation. <br>
<br>
Oh I forgot - he is a self proclaimed intollerista. That must
explain it.<br>
<br>
Isn't it time to move on? Oh, do you claim authorship for the
diagram?<br>
