You are the one who wants a police state with no one able to disagree with your foolishness. I only want the luddite christians to shut up for the good of the party I have never supported legislation to keep them quiet. Those same christians certainly support legislation to keep me quiet.

Don't presume to tell me what I would support in the way of legislation. You couldn't possibly know. It doesn't bother me that you disagree with me. Not one bit. I'm not losing any sleep over it. As for legislation, I don't think we need any more, what is needed is for the laws already on the books to be enforced, and for the special interest groups like the homosexuals and lesbians to be stopped from ramming preferential treatment for their particular perversion down our throats. What is not needed is more laws. We have too many already. Eliminate the loopholes and plea bargains and make the criminals serve their time, and suffer the consequences of their actions. Capital punishment is right, it is the best way to deal with those who have taken a life deliberately. Actions have consequences. People like you keep trying to insulate people from that, to society's great harm.

I don't want legislation to keep you quiet, but I would support legislation to keep you from making me quiet. "My group" wants the full story to be told regarding evolution, i.e. that it is still only a theory, and that there are other theories as well. It is you people who want to suppress any discussion of any other theories with the same attention to detail as your pet theory of evolution. You want to think your great-great-great-great grandpappy was an ape, be my guest! You're free to believe as you will, but you are not free to demand that I believe as you do. By suppressing any discussion of alternate theories, that is exactly what you're doing.

There are more people who believe as I do than you know. they just aren't as vocal about it. Never think that silence is assent.

So since I should not presume what legislation you would support you should bnot assume what sort of person I am.

Does anyone believe that is people of your stripe were to come into power there would not be legislation of all sorts based on biblical edicts. How many Blue laws would return to the books. How many laws proscribing certain behaviors. Your an intolerant group with intolerant goals. I believe in "live and let live" thats why I am against you. I believe in a true reduction of laws not replacing what we have with a theocratic society.
