This is just a statement about respect. As for Trump and his views, different to my views, he deserves the respect that this great country allows. Just as these artists have decided to express there views a certain way, they deserve the respect in expressing them. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. Bottom line, It's there choice. |

As I said on Facebook: How many shows did he attend that weren't in blue states already? It looks to me that the only states he will be cutting out are Florida and Texas. I have an Avengers 173 that he signed and I voted for Trump. He can have it back if he feels that strongly about it. Too bad certain people have to make everything political. |

Vote third party isn't voting for Trump. Not everyone's views have to align with the GOP or Democratic Party. | ||

Please continue to ignore anything I post. | southerncross private msg quote post Address this user | |
my thought of voting 3rd party is throwinh your vote away. im not American so im not sure about your political system. as for artist boycotting states. Free country and their decision. So be it. |

Aw, perhaps Ramos and Perez just need a hug, and a safe space to pet puppies. Poor little snowflakes. Life sucks when you don't get everything your way. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by conditionfreakSo lemme get this straight: when white people feel "threatened" and rush to the polls to get there way because they are "afraid" of where the country might be headed, THOSE feelings are valid. But when Black, gays, hispanics and other minorities express the same fear for where the country might be headed with the election of Trump, THOSE feeling are to be ignored, belittled, and mocked? SMH. Isn't that attitude of marginalizing certain people's feelings EXACTLY how we ended up with Trump? |

None if it matters Trump won, whoop whoop. Cry, whine, what ever anyone needs to do to function. They can go draw in Canada. "America F#@* ya!" Great song from movie Team America World Police. |

Quote:Originally Posted by TruckJohnson Actually, this is wrong. Libertarians [the largest "third party"] are mostly comprised of socially liberal minded people who would otherwise vote Republican. It's (mostly) accepted that Libertarians take votes from the Republican party... i.e. Trump would have won by a wider margin but for the Libertarian party. That being said, the Green Party [2nd largest "third party"] tends to take votes from the Democratic Party... However, the Green Party received far fewer votes than the Libertarian Party. This, of course, has nothing to do with comics... |

Quote:Originally Posted by bodmer71The simple math of this election is that while conservatives were casting all their votes for one candidate, liberals were splitting their votes among three. And while Hillary won the popular vote, all the vote splitting in all the wrong places doomed her. And yeah, none of this has anything to do with comics. |

I think the idea of not doing cons in a "Red State" is silly. I don't disagree with the fact that every person should have the right to voice their discontent (peacefully). However, I don't think Ramos and Perez are hitting the mark. They are punishing their own fans here... Also, the comic industry is full of creators who live in "Red States"... Wouldn't it be just as silly to say that, "I am not going to work with Robert Kirkman because he lives in Kentucky? Just seems like the only people Ramos and Perez are punishing is their fans and themselves... |

Quote:Originally Posted by TruckJohnson You need to read what I wrote. I never stated that I agreed nor disagreed with what you stated. I shined a light on your statement and the inherent bias your statements provides the reader. Your satement about voting for a third party candidate ISN'T respectful. It is your opinion but it isn't respectful of how that US Citizen exercised their voting privilege. |

Quote:Originally Posted by TowmaterSo why aren't you "shining a light" on the inherent bias being provided to readers by the pro Trump folks? There are plenty of people here that have made it clear they are pro Trump and that the rest of us can go "suck it" but I don't see you "shining a light" on the bias of their statements. |
