Why do we have to live with such hate?

When people ask why things like the Texas church shooting happens first they look for ideology, weapons or mental illness.  In my mind the reason starts with the hate that has been prevalent in our society for the last 10 years.  The Alt Left and the Alt Right breed this hatred with violent rhetoric on a daily basis.  The media and the Hollywood Left have nothing to say about Snoop Dog showing a cadaver with a Trump toe tag or the View expounding hate of Trump every day.  The division between Blacks and Whites is at an all time high with Black Lives Matter breeding concepts of hate and retribution.  The KKK and far right groups like them do the same thing.  The politicians on either side fail us daily by being incapable of compromise for the good of our country.  Lessons learned through the decades are forgotten because political correctness requires us to forget our history either good or bad.  As a child I was taught about the bad in America’s history as well as the good.  I was taught that we fought a war for our freedom from England in the 1700’s and those who fought for the new world were heroes of freedom and those who fought for the British were fighting for their country as well.  I learned we fought a Civil War to end the secession of Southern States from the union and it became a war to end Slavery in the United States.  Those who fought on the Union Side were heroes of Freedom and those who fought on the Confederate side were fighting for their States as well.  Most of those conscripted were non political and had little to do with Slavery and fought more for the sovereignty of their homeland.  I learned that many of our Founding Fathers owned Slaves something inconceivable for me to understand, I learned that Jefferson owned Slaves and took one for his mistress having several children with her.  I cannot condone the fact that he owned any Human Being or that anyone should live under those conditions but it is our countries history and should not be erased but learned from.  I learned that in the beginning we occupied lands that were those of the people we now call Native Americans and took many of these lands by force to satisfy our need for expansion and of course our greed for gold and silver.  I have often wondered at the term Native American as it seems to generalize all of their nations into one group and it does not tell the story of wars between their nations.  It also makes me wonder who the lands were held by before the Native Americans came to the area.  I guess what I’m trying to get across is that we are all in the same soup and if we cannot get it together and become one nation again one of our adversary’s will do the job for us.  Russia has been so much in the news because of the allegations against Trump and the allegations against the Clinton’s.  I really think that the bulk of the hatred and division is the result of Russia’s excellent use of the internet and through false news and innuendo keeps us against each other with the hope that they can just let us fight it out and then take over the spoils.
