Violence and lawlessness in America is worse than it ever has been. Until a few years ago, we were mostly unified in our values. Both political parties worked for what they deemed "the common good" for the people of our country. Neither of these things seem to be true now.
Certainly, someone who fantasized about the killing of a political opponent and his children (and admitted it) would have had no chance to win any election for a leadership position in his state. But . . such a man (photo) is running to be Attorney General (top law enforcement officer) for Virginia.
He says he's sorry. But he still plans to win, and his political party has not pulled him out of the race. They should be in a hurry to put distance between themselves and such a man in order to assure Americans that they want nothing to do with murder wishes and violence. So far, they seem to be fine with it and still support him.
