well I must not be a liberal either because I am against the arbitrary denial of all constitutionally protected rights and you so called liberals sure the hell aren'tLooks like you're not a conservative. Holding view of liberals wrong is a necessary and sufficient requirement to be a 21st Century conservative.
Really? So do you support the right of men to marry men, and women to marry women, a women's right to choose, the absolute right to vote unless denied by due process, the right of the LGBT community to serve in our military, a progressive federal income tax, age appropriate sex education in a comprehensive health care curriculum in public schools, contraceptives supplied as are all prescriptions as part of health care and a fiscally responsible Congress, not one which uses tax cuts to take away freedoms from our citizens?
The Bill of Rights are supported by men and women on both sides of the aisle, don't pretend only Libertarians support the Bill of Rights, the Libertarian Platform is far from pragmatic, realistic, democratic or fair.
You know I think we've been through this before but I'll answer you because I like seeing the heads of 2 dimensional thinkers like you explode
I have absolutely no problem with gay marriage. I'll go one better and say no marriage performed in a church should be recognized as legal by the state
I have no problem with abortion
If a person is a citizen and not prohibited by law to vote no problem
Gays in the military don't care at all. I used to know a gay guy that could kick most men's asses in the ring. If a woman canmeet the same standards as all other soldiers no problem with combat
Sex ed doesn't bother me
No problem with contraception in fact I wish more of you idiots would use it
I also think the second amendment is equal to all the other rights. You don't.
Cool, you have some progressive instincts, and to admit shall not infringe doesn't mean shall not infringe is enlightening. Other rights are not absolute and the 2nd A. is no exception.
What makes me two dimensional, in your opinion? Examples please.
Funny how you asked those question with the presumption of my answers
THAT makes you 2 dimensional because a guy who supports the 2nd can't be for gay marriage right?
Why do you think the "shall not be infringed" clause was not included in any of the other enumerated rights?
I think that because the New Right, the 21st Century conservative opposes gun control and votes in lockstep against the entire progressive movement, i.e. gays in marriage and the military, age appropriate SexEd, health car reform, the progressive income tax, etc. etc.
Good for you, you write that you have an open mind, something I didn't believe and will be sure to evaluate in your future posts.
I think the Shall not infringe clause was included because the small states feared the large states and needed the security of a well regulated militia under their command and control. No sane, sober and unimpaired mentally person believes every person should own, possess or have in his or her custody and control a gun. That is true today, and was true in the 18th Century.
