While certainly not limited to the 20-30 something crowd, viewers of South Park tend to be the latchkey offspring of the infamous Baby Boomers. These children of MTV and video games have extremely limited attention spans and as a result are always moving from one experience to the next in hopes of finding fulfillment. Unfortunately, all they are finding in South Park is a wasteland.
Loosen up. Conservatives are supposed to be united by their adherence to the creed of liberty - namely, we are free to do as we will, and to fall flat on our faces in the effort, or fly to the stars. The cartoonist with the "vulgar" strip can be in favour of liberty just as much as the starched polyester wearing churchgoer.
I'm a conservative. Remember, we don't all look like you. You don't help the movement by alienating potential allies with this kind of rubbish - there are many people who would call themselves conservative but won't because they run into intolerant nonsense like this.

I'm late to the party as usual. Do as I do. TURN THE CHANNEL. I don't let my kids watch it here.
They feel like they are committing rebellion and pulling one over on me when they watch it at friend's houses.
If the worst thing my kids ever do is sneak South Park, I'll be happy as a clam.
Once again, more proof that the Righteous Right is as dangerous as the Loony Left. Fascism takes form in both groups. True Conservatives can accept the fact that freedom means not everyone will conform to their way of life. True Conservatives are the clear minority!
"(although I don't confine my beatin's to this side of the gender fence)."
Where do I get a number to stand in what should be a very long line by now?
Ole cracker probably doesn't like guitars in church either.
dum dum dum dum dum dum dum...etc.
"I would never let a woman kick my ass. If she tried anything. I'd be like. Hey! You get your b!tch a$$ back in the kitchen. And make me some pie. Hey woman, you shut your mouth and make babies. Hey, you go do my laundry. Hey listen missy, you go nit me a sweater before I slap you in the face. Hey, why don't you stop dressing me up like a mailman and making me dance for you while you go smoke crack in your bedroom and have sex with some guy I don't even know, on on my dad's bed."
Rock-hard stupid. Dehydrated-rock-hard stupid.
Stupid so stupid that it goes way beyond the stupid we know into a whole different dimension of stupid.
Trans-stupid stupid. Meta-stupid. Stupid collapsed on itself so far that even the neutrons have collapsed.
Stupid gotten so dense that no intellect can escape. Singularity stupid. Blazing hot mid-day sun on Mercury stupid.
It emits more stupid in one second than our entire galaxy emits in a year. Quasar stupid.
Nothing in our universe can really be this stupid. Perhaps this is some primordial fragment from the original big bang of stupid. Some pure essence of a stupid so uncontaminated by anything else as to be beyond the laws of physics that we know.
I'm sorry. I can't go on. This is an epiphany of stupid for me.
Well Hidey HO.........
So you're saying...yes? ;)
Definitely.
"...proof that the Righteous Right is as dangerous as the Looney Left.."
THANK YOU! This is why true conservatives are as opposed to social engineering from the right as they are to social engineering from the left. True conservatives believe society should engineer itself.
And for the record, I don't watch South Park: Tried, but can't stand the animation.
"I got warrants!"
Don't be fooled into thinking that the guys who make this slop are Conservatives. In an interview last week, one of the two creators of the show admitted to still being 'on the fence' about who to vote for on November 2. 'On the fence' describes perfectly the character of anyone who contributes to such mindless drivel, either through its production or viewing.
As to those who would resist being labeled 'Conservative' because of my lone voice of dissent against South Punk, all I can say is, 'I'm deeply saddened'. You Libertarians are as intolerant, if not more so, than your Leftist cousins.
LOL! You know me well.
None, but thanks for asking. Posting about South Punk always brings the roaches surrying out from the woodwork. Thanks for joining your friends!
No one is forcing you to watch it. Part of freedom of speech is tolerating speech you don't like.
Don't be fooled into thinking that the guys who make this slop are Conservatives.
They're self-confessed Libertarians. On economic policy and the role of government, the Libertarian movement is a natural ally of conservatives.

Not because of you in particular. You are irrelevant. But there are a number of people like you, who have more decibels than brains who turn off people to conservatism.

I see. Let's get this right, first, I'm not a libertarian. Second, I've not started up a thread saying that Intolerant Old Fogies ought to be exiled to Spain. If anyone is displaying crass idiocy and intolerance, it's you.
