Best thing that can happen is the Heritage Foundation, and all members for the last 25 years, get labeled as domestic terrorists and sent to an El Salvadorian prison.
Their good book still has the eye for an eye clause, let's use it. Thoughts and prayers and such.
Besides, the only way to ensure tolerance is not to tolerate intolerance.
- for anyone who's curious, here's a list of businesses i know to be associated with the heritage foundation:
  chik-fil-a
  tractor supply
  hobby lobby
  rural king
  exxonmobile
  anheiser-coors
  
  Yeah the Coors family is deep in the shit.
  The source watch page for State Policy Network donors is crazy, and not even that up to date, so I'm sure probably way more by now. Of course the Coors family is included:
  https://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=SPN_Funding
  But public documents discovered by the Center for Media and Democracy (CMD) reveal that SPN is largely funded by global corporations -- such as Reynolds American, Altria, Microsoft, AT&T, Verizon, GlaxoSmithKline, Kraft Foods, Express Scripts, Comcast, Time Warner, and the Koch- and Tea Party-connected DCI Group lobbying and PR firm -- that stand to benefit from SPN's agenda, as well as out-of-state special interests like the billionaire Koch brothers, the Waltons, the Bradley Foundation, the Roe Foundation of SPN's founder, and the Coors family -- who are underwriting an extreme legislative agenda that undermines the rights of Americans. Corporations like Facebook and the for-profit online education company K12 Inc., as well as the e-cigarette company NJOY (a new member of the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC)), also fund SPN, as demonstrated by its most recent annual meeting.
- Including the folks who designed the ACA?
  
  Can you really credit them when they disavow it?
  "Don't Blame Heritage for ObamaCare Mandate":
  The Heritage Foundation and Stuart M. Butler oppose the individual mandate in ObamaCare.
  The idea that the individual mandate originated from the conservative Heritage Foundation is a misconception.
  While Heritage supported a version of the health insurance mandate in the 1990s, it differed significantly from the ObamaCare mandate.
