This has been one of the funniest things I have seen in the past couple days. One of my friends said... "and I'm just sitting over here like..."

Mine are ranting.
Specifically about refugees being allowed in the U.S. Opinions vary from the far left to the far right. Pretty sure some friendships have ended in the past few days. 
Mine are ranting.
I had to unfollow Mikey/Baja too.

Yes, I have a lot of posts about refugees, too. I just don't have any radical ranters on my FB page. I do, however, have friends who are raging liberals and some who are ultra conservative. They just don't act ignorant and get all stupid about their rants.

Oh I have seen some doozies on my fb page. Had one (gay) male friend post the meme with the Pilgrims and the Indians, basically having the Pilgrims as the refugees. I wanted to respond "dude, how'd that work out for the Indians, welcoming in those refugees?". Another (gay) male friend posted, asking how his family and friends who are railing about the refugees would feel if he decided to convert to Islam. Then a female friend went on a long winded self introspection on being a humanitarian and how all lives have value, it weaved its way into patting herself on the back for buying food for a guy with a sign saying he was a homeless vet (don't ask me how. I'm still trying to figure out myself, how she went from saving Syrian refugees to buying a burger for a vet).
I have noticed that most of the folks on my fb page who are distraught over the mistreatment of Muslims, are the very same folks who lose their #### over how poorly the LGBT is treated in America. They're the first to want to boycott Chic Filet, or the Christian Hobby shop, and it's quite the travesty that some damn bakery didn't bake them a wedding cake. They're also the same individuals who feel that if a woman gets drunk and bangs a dude (or dude's), that it should be considered rape, and the perpetrators should be rotting away in prison.
It seems completely lost on these individuals that homosexuality is illegal in almost every single Islamic run Country in the World. Those "moderate" Muslims will throw you in jail (or worse) for simply being gay. They also don't seem to realize that even for moderate Muslims, women have little to no rights, if she gets raped, it's her fault. A woman can be stoned to death for the most minor of infractions.

I actually did see the Indian and the Pilgrim meme. I might disagree with some of the memes I see (in this case, that one) but I didn't think of that particular one as going on an ignorant rant. I really don't get offended at a lot of what my friends or relatives say(post), but I also just don't comment on most of the stuff I consider dumb or wrong, especially if I think it will cause strife in a friend or relative's relationship with me.
It's still early though - there might be worse ones yet to come!
