With the outrage expressed by Trump's blatant sexist comments, and use of graphic anatomical

actions, it wasn't that long ago when there were some here, who I believe no longer grace us with their presence, that had no problem referring to our Democratic nominee with similar terminology. Some even "defending" its use with such absurd arguments that it is "quite common usage in the UK, so it shouldn't be offensive here".

Many of the Tea Party bigots weren't offended either by Trump's comments.

This is what fascists do. Check out Gabriele D'Annunzio, one of the founders of fascism. He was fond of telling everyone that he enjoyed shedding sperm almost as much as he enjoyed shedding blood.

Their ideology is dangerous. We cannot let up.
