Exactly! In recent years, liberals have been trying to force everyone to say that homosexuality is okay. So liberals are trying to enforce uniformity of thought and opinion. That is the opposite of liberty, tolerance, and pluralism. Conservatives are the ones mature enough to coexist, to agree to disagree. Two gay people can do whatever they want together, but they can't force me to give their lifestyle a gold star. I still have the right to believe what I want.

You know, Octavia, conservatives support giving LBGT folks equal rights in housing, employment, protection from harassment, access to public transportation, etc. If two gay people want to be more than just roommates, that's their business. But when they demand that the rest of us endorse such a union, it's our business. And I pity the adopted kids who will have to grow up without a mother or without a father.

I think you're wrong. I think the majority of conservatives support their "rights" but it can be done without agreeing with the lifestyle, or personally validating the lifestyle.

I don't think that's true. I think the majority of conservatives think it's an abomination and participants are going to hell, so they shouldn't be allowed to get married, or make decisions for a loved one, or use a particular public restroom. Prior to the Supreme Court validation of same sex marriages, only 37 states were allowing it. This is not supporting their rights.

I can think atheists are an abomination and going to hell but it doesn't mean they have any less rights. I was okay with civil unions, but when the gay community decided that wasn't good enough and that it was an imperative that everyone change their definition of marriage to match theirs, the line was crossed. Branding people homophobes because they don't agree with the gay definition of marriage only widens that Gap.

What about the parents killed here in terrorist attacks, because we didn't finish the job in the Middle-east? And if North Korea manages to nuke LA, millions will be killed.

Liberal Democrats are the ones pandering to as many special interest groups as possible for votes. If conservative Republicans only cared about money or votes, don't you think we'd be lowering our values and doing more pandering?

LMAO!! Trump pandered to the racist xenophobes during his canpaign after spending years as a democrat. He even said if he would ever run for office it would be as a Repube because it would be so easy to just say all the ignorant bs they like to hear. There's video of him saying that like 10 or 15 years ago.

You're not making sense at all. Conservatives don't coexist or agree to disagree. Why then defund planned parenthood ? Why outlaw transgender bathrooms? If you're coexisting then you're saying it's okay to be who you want to be, to have the right of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Conservatives are specifically saying these things aren't okay, that people can be this but they can't get married, or have survivors rights, or use the damn restroom. People are being murdered by right wing extremists for dressing different than the norm, or for trying to get birth control. It's not liberals doing all that. Liberals are saying you can think how you want. Just don't deny someone else basic human and civil rights because you disagree.

Tolerance is not the only virtue; nor is it the commanding virtue. People can do what they want, AS LONG as it's not threatening the rights of others. We don't want our tax dollars going to the slaughter of innocent children. And we don't want men in the bathroom with our little girls--we want to protect our girls' safety, sanctity, and privacy. NO ONE has the right to use the opposite gender's bathroom. These are common sense laws to ensure everyone's safety. If transgender people's emotions can't handle it, then build a third, single-stall bathroom for them. If a man wants to think of himself as a woman, whatever; but he can't make the rest of us ignore what is obvious. Most conservatives are against violence, so please don't use the Misleading Vividness fallacy against us.

And what is on your? People are born with deformities... think of it as conjoined twins or a third arm. People are born with the wrong sex organs. By all other accounts, they are a certain gender. There are trannies who you would never know were the opposite gender. So it's only what's obvious? I know a young boy in high school who was gay and thought of himself as a girl. He had no interest in girls whatsoever. But he would get beat up in the boys restroom. So what is he supptto do? You want to talk about tolerance? These aren't common sense laws to ensure anything. They're discriminatory. Aren't you worried about female perverts in the men's room? Probably not.

And you don't want your tax dollars to pay for kids on welfare, and you don't care about young boys born with the wrong parts who identify as female being forced to use a men's restroom where they can be harassed or assaulted...

Procreation doesn't necessarily mean death. It just means no one is being born either. :I

(Sigh) re-read what you just said and explain to me why you think you're not an idiot.
If there's no procreation, then there's no species. A species that cannot bore offspring will surely die off.
