At yesterday’s Trump rally in St. Louis, this young man is shouting “Fuck you, you whore!” at a woman protesting the hate and misogyny of Donald Trump and his supporters. This young man, about the age to be a junior or senior in high school, is somebody’s son. As are the boys walking next to him, who seem to be smirking at their friend’s behavior. What do their dads think? Are they proud of this? Did they teach their boys to hate at 5 years old? Or 10? Or do they see their boys on TV and ball up their fists in anger and hop in their cars to bring them home, wondering on the drive about where they went wrong. Here’s to the latter, but I’m afraid its the former. And this reminds me of the woman in Baltimore, who smacked her loved son around when she saw him risk death to take part in the riots. Here’s hoping that the dads step up and issue their own firm righting the direction these boys are sailing. because they’re going to need it, as it’s going to be difficult to make a good living with this in their history.
