If you have experienced such hurtful words growing up, you know full well how harmful it could be for a child to hear derogatory words flung around about his or her father. The fact that you seem so dismissive of them ("poor little" is what indicated this to me, but I might be wrong) is surprising.

The problem is not questioning or criticizing his policies. I don't know where you got that from. The problem is using personal attacks like "scumbag."

The kids at school were saying that gay people were sinful/going to hell/pedophiles/unfit parents/other such lies and false statements. That hurt, that they would think that about my dad, my cousin, and, as I found out in high school, me too. Because those were LIES.

It's true that Paul Ryan supports, sponsors, and pushes for policies that are very harmful to women, and could have life-threatening consequences. I wouldn't go up to his kids and say "your dad's a scumbag" that's ridiculous, where is that situation even coming from in this discussion? But if his kids happen to hear people discussing their dad and saying "he's really anti-women's rights/he makes me scared to be a woman in this country/I'm afraid for my healthcare and my student loans with him in office" how does that harm them? Those aren't lies or slander, they're FACTS.

I don't think we are disagreeing; there may have been a misunderstanding.

Someone in another post on this thread called Ryan a "scumbag," which I noted was a personal attack and should be avoided. That was what did not sit right with me; I think it is perfectly reasonable to criticize his policies (in fact, it should be encouraged). I believe we may be on the same page in this regard.

I am so sorry to hear about the intolerance and bigotry you have suffered from. I am glad you have the strength the overcome such horror, and I hope and pray that those classmates will see the errors of their ways.
