Actually, I see it more as conservatives who can't realize that they need to get with modern times and acknowledge female equality. Acknowledge racial equality. Acknowledge sexual orientation equality.
But that's just my opinion.

The world is changing for the better, and the dinosaurs are screaming from the tar pits...
How's that for an answer?

<end sarcasm>

But seriously, we have had differences of opinion before in this country. Conservatives and liberals have always been around.
Conservatives fought to hold back women's rights while liberals fought for equality.
Conservatives fought to hold blacks in segregation while liberals fought for equality.
Part of the problem is that BOTH sides have people that are NO LONGER LISTENING to the other side. And you are a prime example of that.

Alias, YOUR opinions are out of step with the majority. The majority BELIEVE IN first trimester abortion. The majority BELIEVE IN gay equal rights with the sole exception of gay marriage.

And YOU are trying to divide things by dragging us back into the stone age.
Gays have every right I do. Name one right a gay does not have that I have. Name one.

If Mike Ferner is a black man, he must suffer from the same "it makes me white" disease Michael Jackson has.

Here's Mike Ferner...

Maybe we could use the liberal tactic and find some cookies that are white on the outside and chocolate on the inside to toss at him.

Kinda funny what happens when liberals' arguments unravel and fall apart.

I never said he was black.

Are both you and alias incapable of comprehending simple English?

Try reading the context of a post before butting in and saying something foolish...

I went back 60 years FOR AN ANALOGY.
I wasn't advocating action based on those items that happened 60 years ago.

You ARE advocating that we spend BILLIONS of dollars and invoke THOUSANDS of American soldier casualties over something that Saddam hasn't been guilty of in a decade.

If I WERE advocating something (like reparations) for blacks based on those actions, then you would have a point. But I'm not, so your comment is inane.

I'm not going to entertain this stupid trick you have of COMPLETELY changing the subject. ESPECIALLY when this question has been answered REPEATEDLY.

Gays are in a different thread.
Either address the point I made, or don't waste my time.

He DID NOT INTERFERE with any operation of that hospital.
Can you show me ANY aspect of that hospital's operation which was interfered with?

I am repeatedly amazed at how often you try to prune away an argument until it has no semblance to the argument actually made.
The point is when those "values" are UNJUST ones, then they should be thrown out.
Racism? Misogyny? An annoying habit of stealing the Indian's land? Segregation?
Yes. Those are values our nation has held "since our birth" that should be thrown out.

A better question for you, considering the thread we are on, is WHY should we throw out the value of freedom of speech like you are advocating?
