Danny, I think the way you’ve framed the question is not conducive to discussion.
A new law has been proposed using the state’s official referendum process. Just because someone votes against it doesn’t mean they hate anyone. Similarly, just because you support the referendum doesn’t mean YOU hate anyone.
This word “hate” is really getting overused. Time was when it was reserved for people who actually said or did hateful things. Now, in Seattle, it seems to apply to conservatives generally. Or even just “anyone who doesn’t agree with me.”
Throwing tomatoes (either literally or figuratively) is worse than illegal: it’s counterproductive. After the election, these anti-R74 guys are still going to be your neighbors, your coworkers, your fellow citizens. You’re gonna have to hear what they have to say eventually. Might as well start now.
