“Unless conservative strike back, this perversion continues.”
Let’s face reality - conservatives are a long ways from being sufficiently emotionally invested in all social issues they claim to care about to take the type of group action required to cause any substantive change.
The type of action required is what the gays, the left, the feminists, the islamists are so good at. They unapologetically get in the face of the people that offend them. They would go to the stores and raise hell, make the owners feel unsafe, smash windows, burn down the place, risk imprisonment and life.
The islamisists take these tactics to the extreme by terrorizing their opposition - and like it or not, it works.
You won’t see any more mohammed cartoon anytime soon on the cover (or anywhere else) of any significant publication.
Even in the face of such atrocities and disrespect of the values that we hold dear, we conservatives aren’t sufficiently motivated and energized to take us out of our comfort zone and do something en mass that would stem the tide.
Perhaps someday we will - hopefully it won’t be too late.
That’s why the left and rabid gay agenda is on the rise. Conservatives stood silent, murmured, tolerated, and then capitulated from Brittany Spears and Madonna kissing to now this. A bright line has been crossed.

That’s why I always have a chuckle at the CW2 or Revolution 2 posts.
There’s not going to be anything like that. Even if there were I’d bet a solid majority of conservatives wouldn’t support it.
One thing about groups like Occupy Wall Street, they showed up and they kept showing up.
You’re correct that the left does do that and conservatives, in the main anyway, don’t.
None of that matters.
I can make a personal choice to boycott any business...for whatever reason I choose.
If this - and other stores - want to pin themselves to this crowd, then their customer base will no include me.
Mostly, it’s just an attempt at “lawsuit insurance”, but in the long run which will be greater, lawsuits from the 2%, or loss of sales from the 97%?
Conservatives, for the most part, aren't even willing to go into professions where we could potentially influence the culture. We just sit back and make fun of those professions while patting ourselves on the back for "having a real job" or " running my own business".
