Thank you for more inspirational insights in your ongoing battle of wits with the unarmed men and women in the MAGA Army of the Witless. If only humor could vanquish misinformation and hate then I might be more optimistic about the future of our nation. Nonetheless, keep up the great work!

You are so right on!

Love your satirical and political comics and I miss the Arroyo group.

Great cartoons! You poked the orange bears quite nicely. If the Trumpkins could just see themselves and hear themselves for awhile without the applause of others more might come to their senses. Maybe? Do they still have senses other than for outrage, victimhood, and donating their money to the grifters? Great job on your part during your career and with this “little time filler.”

As a nearby resident, I want it on a tee shirt, "Bisbee: outpost of sentient beings surrounded by madness." Fitz, are you willing to share?

Love it = want one, only I live in SW Tucson and think myself, at 85, still sentient!

Well hey, not everyone in Cochise County is a maggot!! (Willcoxian here--all 6 of us demos know each other) Been following you for years dear and continue to appreciate your vision, superb writing, and stamina. Your final cartoon today reminds me of the mob scene in the Disney version of Beauty and the Beast. It was so very real, horribly and regrettably pertinent, that it still gives me chills.

You're a braver man than I Fitz. Last year I took down my bumper stickers for the Desert Museum. I'm scared of these lunatics. While reading this, I thought about battered school board members, and especially the abuse suffered by Matt Heinz. Something needs to be done to protect him

Don't know how you manage to keep your sense of humor, but I'm so thankful you do. Helps me put these MAGA nutcakes into perspective. Keep up the good work and thank you!

As a long time admirer of you and your work, I realized how very much I miss having you in my life every day. Knowing there are others with a voice who can say the things I was thinking out loud and in public gives me validation, courage, and power. Thank you for this refresher course. Please keep talking about politics. You do it so extraordinarily well and definitely “in your face.” I am sorry you had to experience so much hate and abuse. I truly had NO idea about it’s extent. To me that is a badge of courage and success. It also means that people are listening! Best wishes to you, David. Happy Independence Day.

However, while those of us Democrats with guns do not wear shirts advocating violence nor do we preach violence, but we are simply sick of the MAGA's among us who do. Love the cartoons, need the humor to remain essentially peaceful while at times wishing for a mighty wind to capture them all and blow them away.
