So what? That "overwhelming support" may very well be the fictitious creation of statist pollsters and media.
Even if were a true measure of public sentiment, so what? It would be shallow, uninformed sentiment ginned up by the lies of the statist media, and therefore an unsuitable basis for policy.
Even if it is a true measure of public sentiment AND were based on reasons those holding those opinions have considered carefully and could articulate, as opposed to being based on the lies of the statist media, so what?
Are we now in the business of abrogating civil rights based on a plurality of public opinion? Would it be OK to bring back slavery if a majority of the public wanted it? No, there's a Constitutional amendment prohibiting it. Would it be OK to bring back segregation if a majority of the public wanted it? No, SCOTUS has said it violates the Constitution.
Why are liberals so stupid, and why do the factors they'd never accept as justifying policies they disagree with ample support for ones they like?
“Why are liberals so stupid, and why do the factors they’d never accept as justifying policies they disagree with ample support for ones they like?”
Because liberals emote, not think.
