I'm nice to the respectful.

I’m supposed to show respect. For just about everyone. Or so I’ve been taught. But I can’t bring myself to do it. Because I live in a disrespectful society. A disrespectful world. Yes, so many of us are disrespectful of each other. It’s like a disease. That infects us all. But still, I try to show respect, even for people I don’t like. But pardon me if I don’t show full respect. For certain people. Such as conservative Republicans. And racists. And cold-blooded killers. And tyrants. I justify my disrespect because it’s aimed at disrespectful people. I’m nice to the respectful. –Jim Broede
