Awww…  this is nice.

Democrats disgusted by the firebombing of a GOP office in Orange County, NC, set up a GoFundMe page to help reopen it and blew past their $10,000 goal within hours Sunday. “Thank you all for showing that Americans are thirsty for civility and decency, and that we love our democracy above all our differences,” wrote the page’s creators, who stressed that they were ordinary voters, not Democratic officials. Police are still searching for the attackers who threw a firebomb into the Republican headquarters in Hillsborough overnight Saturday and spray-painted “Nazi Republicans leave town or else” on an adjacent building, the Hill reports.

Republican Governor Pat McCrory said this firebombing was an “attack on our democracy.”

Hillary Clinton expressed her frustration over this, calling it “horrific and unacceptable:”

The attack on the Orange County HQ @NCGOP office is horrific and unacceptable. Very grateful that everyone is safe.

And Republican nominee Donald Trump responded:

Animals representing Hillary Clinton and Dems in North Carolina just firebombed our office in Orange County because we are winning @NCGOP
