No matter how wrong you think others may be, please strive to be even more civil during contentious discussions.

I think what he said was entirely appropriate. You don't have to look very hard to find pretty convincing evidence that Republicans are not the law and order party that they claim to be. Gerrymandering, obstructionism, racist and anarchist dog whistling. There's so much there it's hard to know where to start.
You've written a much more substantive and civil comment than did 'yongjik while raising the same issue. My point was not that the sentiment was unjustified, but that the manner in which it was expressed was uncivil. Especially with politics, we need to strive to be even more civil rather than less so.
