I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night.

Let us find the balance: Alarmed and vigilant but not panicked; determined, not despairing; insisting on analyzing the situation as it actually is - instead of bowing to the assertion that reality does not apply to these dangerous clowns.
