I have done a political post before and while I didn't receive any hate comments I did lose some followers. Shit happens. If you know me you know I am a raging conservative. Do I have friends that are democrats? Sure frienemies. KIDDING. When I post something/talk about politics it's just me talking out my ass about what I think and have heard, it isn't to sway anyone any certain way. I am smart enough to know doing a blog post or updating your status stating Mitt is the Tits isn't going to get him any more votes than before.
One of my favorite bloggers did a political post and it was hilarious, it wasn't bashing anyone, she wrote it just to be funny and even stated that from jump. I was reading through the comments and she received several just rude, offensive comments where people got all butt hurt somehow about food stamps and such well my thoughts are if you aren't abusing the system then good for you, no need to get so defensive.
Well this got me thinking of course. The subject of food stamps and government handouts. Food stamps tend to have a bad wrap. Yes I understand there are people who abuse the system and there are people who truly need them and use them just until they can get back on their feet.
I found this on Epic Fail and it shows the exact example of why food stamps get a bad name.
WOW. I have no words. Well none I should be sharing right now.

Wow, that's a classy person right there...

Whoops..did I just say that?
I agree with your post even if we're on two different sides. Food stamps do get a bad wrap sometimes. But the previous comment just show's how ill informed some people are that make generalizations. It's always embarrasing to make one when it's not back with facts.
