9. I am against physical violence.

Yet I refuse to give the Republicon party any benefit of doubt, or see them as just poor misguided souls. They thrive on causing those whom they view as vulnerable and therefore beneath them, immense pain and suffering. To put it plainly they are adult bullies.

Until they are willing to own up to that, apologize for it, and do more than theatrical efforts, to make recompense to those they harmed, I will never "unite," with them on anything. Evil exists and currently they are the absolute personification of it.
