Different people from different places with different views sharing the same food can be tricky. Especially if you’re passing around a bowl of mashed potatoes sitting next to a dressed up tree. This time, however, a teenage girl and her grandma have spared the rest and had their argument on Facebook. It had politics, it had religion, so you know it escalated quickly. Continue scrolling to check out which of their views clashed, and let us know in the comments if you manage to escape the holiday season without a single awkward family conversation!

There are people living in this country who are a threat to our way of life. They are called violent criminals and they are male and female, every race, every physical description etc. To assume that one group is a threat is not only ignorant it is ineffective policy.

There is one group that's stood out as a threat to the general public: white men. They are the overwhelming majority of serial killers and perpetrators of mass shootings. If you don't believe me, publicly available crime statistics will back me up.

"I am afraid of immigrants, they are suicide bombers!" According to my search, but please do correct me if I'm wrong, there have been no major terrorist attacks from Islamists in the US during 2018, but "“There have been 262 American mass shootings (4+ shot or killed in the same incident, not including the shooter) in the 263 days of 2018,” the Gun Violence Archive tweeted.", so...Even if there had been a few suicide bombings, the shootings are clearly taking the cake here, but nooo forbidding guns won't solve anything right...

In order to know these things, one would have to be educated and very well-informed. The sad reality is that a lot of people don’t have the mental capacity to understand certain things.

What a pathetic defense to try to make herself look admirable. "All of my racist views are just because I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!"

Knowing the amount of unresolved stigma in the older crowd it isn't really surprising that she thinks this way. I think that it is more an issue of ignorance rather than apathy.
