I have NO contempt for our civil rights. Nor do Democrats as a whole.

I know, it's SO HARD to understand. Keep trying.

@maporsche,
It's civil liberties the Democrats hate. They want equal rights, but not equal freedoms.

They hate Fox News, Christians and conservative speakers so the 1st amendment is out the door for them.
They hate guns, so 2A is done
They are fine with gun confiscation so the 4th goes away

It's a terrible time to be a Libertarian in America as it slowly moves into a police state.

The degree of delusion in that statement is just unbelievable. Has Oralloy been tutoring you?

@Setanta,
His characterization of liberals' goals was quite accurate. They do indeed hate freedom and want to violate our rights.

@Setanta,
They spout this at the same time that Trump is attacking the news on a regular basis. Trying to get the Justice Department to protect him from any laws he's broken. And he just implemented a rule to restrict bump stocks.

He's done more to hurt civil rights than Democrats have in the last 20 years.

@maporsche,
That is incorrect. Trump is protecting our civil rights by preventing the Democrats from violating them.

@oralloy,
Your simple mind is a BLESSING. That's not contempt. It's jealousy, truly.

No oralloy.

You're not understanding. It's ok. We know why. Go in peace.

This doesn't make any sense. Care to explain the difference between someone wanting "equal rights" and someone wanting "equal freedoms"?
Quote:

Fox News is merely right-wing propaganda dressed up like a legitimate news source. This gets pointed out time after time. Since many Democrats are Christians your statement is overly broad. Most Democrats, even the religious ones, are fine with Jefferson's "wall of separation" between church and state, and are likely to criticize religionists (of any denomination) who challenge or dispute the "establishment clause" of the 1st Amendment. I doubt if "Democrats hate conservative speakers" any more than "Republicans hate liberal speakers" — you've said nothing.
Quote:

You're confused. Just because people "hate guns" doesn't mean the 2nd Amendment disappears. You need to take a civics class.
Quote:

Another dumb generalization — where is this "gun confiscation" occurring?

It's always a bad time to be a Libertarian because Libertarians will forever be disappointed in the great gulf between their ideals and political reality.

If he does, he'll have implemented more restrictions on firearms and their accessories than Obama ever did.
