Having a likening towards guns - IMO, has nothing to do with being a conservative or liberal. It's about amending regulations pertaining towards the "eligibility" to own guns and to carry them in public, that differentiate a liberal conservative from a right-wing conservative.Well I don't think I'm an extreme lefty but ask anyone here, they'll say I'm a liberal not a conservative. It's true.
Social security, abortion, global warming, unions, medicare, regulations, abortion, affirmative action, freedom from religion, gay marriage.
What am I conservative about? I like guns but common sense legislation is good. I want to turn away people who come to our borders. Go to the US Embassy in Guatamala if you want to ask for asylum. Going after welfare abuse. Or getting people off it. Prison reform. I agree with the Koch brothers that shit is costing us too much. Cutting wasteful spending in Washington. Paying off the debt. Something Republicans only talk about when a Democrats in the White House. And no trans women shouldn't be allowed to compete with women.
(And I am not stating this - because I own guns myself, even auto firearms, but because I do not carry them in public, since I trust and believe in the police and their duty/obligation towards maintaining the peace).
An lefty will oppose guns in general, since he opposes killing and war. If participating in violent demos he will "justify" using stones, molotov's and slingshots firing steel bearings, since he decided to become a radical lefty. Never heard or took notice of a lefty extremist/radical carrying or using firearms. If they do then factually he is a lefty anarchist turned terrorist.
As for transgender - I don't really get your point, since there are no laws nor regulations that would separate athletic/muscular men from lesser athletic muscular men. So why should a law or regulation separate more muscular/athletic women from lesser? Especially not in view of those having performed a sex-change operation. Furthermore the % of transgender people is so minor that it really doesn't bother me. Same goes for those gay buggers and their lesbian compatriots.
I would oppose a doctrine being spread in public schools, that e.g. propagates/promotes, being gay is great or normal. However I would deem it as necessary to make kids aware of homos and lesbians being a part of our society that do not deserve prosecution nor punishment. Just as some believe in an inherent "democratic" right towards arms - those homos are democratically free to get their bums humped if they wish so.
