Charlottesville

[L Verge]

We are all supposedly students of Lincoln studies in some form or the other on this forum. Perhaps we need to remember what, to me, is his most memorable statement that applies to us all - even 150+ years after his death:

With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds...

Closing one's mind to the opinions of others, censoring opposing views, and finally taking one's marbles and going home instead of trying to be constructive is not what Mr. Lincoln meant, in my opinion.
