I do love my people here, but here’s where I fundamentally disagree ... we are not a majority. We are a rapidly shrinking minority. THAT is the problem.

There will be no sudden swelling of support. There will not be millions, or even thousands, taking to the streets.

And this is what makes me the most angry.

We still have states. But they’re too tied to the DC pols. The misery that’s coming will probably be enough to push people away from their TVs, iPhones, and keyboards.

You are correct but many here will vehemently deny it until the day they die (which probably isn't very far away in certain cases).

I went to a hot-rod car show this morning. Turnout was not all that great, partly because of the high temps but also due to the diminishing numbers of 60-somethings who restore and show these mid-century cars. These guys are mostly conservative. I suspect after the owners reach 70 or so many of the cars stay home in the garage. A little while longer and these guys and their wives won't even be voting. Younger car enthusiasts tend to go import or modern muscle car. Different shows and different politics and morals for the affluent millenials.

Oh, absolutely.

People opposing gay marriage are a tiny minority in the country right now. And it is a non-issue now. It will never go back.

Now the fight will be to allow true religious freedom. We need to fight FAR harder for that. If the country thinks gay marriage legality everywhere is freedom, they need to be reminded that freedom has to be for EVERYONE.

OUR FIGHT NOW NEEDS TO BE TO PROTECT RELIGION. PERIOD.

I agree. This was evidenced in the elections of 2008 and 2012.In addition to that, each year a class of indoctrinated robots are graduated from high schools and colleges across the United States. And probably 90% or more vote Democrat the first few times they vote.
