You are correct. The only place I ever hear of talk about gay marriage and pot laws, is here. Granted I do not have a large social circle, but the people I know, just aren’t interested in these 2 issues. They will comment on it a little if someone brings it up, but I don’t believe it influences anyone’s vote. I am 62yo, work as a defense contractor and get random drug and polygraph tests.

I read your entire post...

If you knew any libertarians, you would know it is us, not conservatives, that were on the front lines fighting this line of social engineering also..

so, like I said, you do not know any libertarians, do you?

I did not realise that defending against agendas was a FR requirement?

What kind of observations are there, if not personal? Why do you allow atheists and libertarians here then?

If your personal observations include defending the homosexual agenda (or any other liberal/socialist/Marxist cause), then you may find your welcome here running out, just as many other atheists and liberaltarians have.

I HATE the homosexual agenda (which is just another Marxist tool to destroy our liberty) and all other agendas that I, as a freeper should defend against, and will fight them with my entire being until death.

‘I think the turn-arounds seem fast because to most Americans, these two issues aren’t that important.’

How does the above statement defend the homosexual agenda?

The WOD is fought incorrectly. You cannot fight a war on drugs where 90% of them are imported without closing the border. Period. When the suppliers start losing 7 out of 10 shipments or more instead of 2 out of 10 (and the number maybe lower) then you will see a change. No matter what Holder’s clan say they have no idea how much really comes over the border/ports/aircraft/seas.

I speak from sitting on the border and watching obvious runners come over and get caught taking the under-staffed LEOs off their post and over the next several hours you can see the increase in traffic until they figure the next shift comes on or the arresting officers are back out of the office.

It is the legal system that you and your associates have also implemented that requires insane documentation just to put an illegal Mexican drug runner caught with 200 pounds in jail. It took me 3-5 hours to clear paperwork and arraignments before I was back out. That your honor is BS. Please don’t lecture my on civil rights yada yada. It is a broken system all designed to ensure jobs in the legal community not protect rights of the accused.

"Last Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed for the first time to take on the issue of gay marriage. No matter how it rules in the two cases it will hear next spring, polling data suggest it is only a matter of time before legal recognition of same-sex unions is the norm throughout the country."

Don't play games with me, troll. Your next post defending the above statement may be your last.

Of course I know libertarians, too many of them, I prefer conservatives, and was smart enough in 1975 to catch the leftism of the libertarians.

They are behind conservative lines fighting for social engineering everywhere, they are the commandos of the left, advancing the agenda and erasing conservatism, blurring the lines with a new vocabulary, even Mitt Romney adopted it to justify his radical leftism.

It’s always interesting to hear a liberal react to the idea of pot legalization. Their first words always include “regulate” and “tax”. I think that deep down, their support for gay marriage is really just based on the instinct of wanting a way to tax and regulate same sex relationships.

Please, tell me the words I used that are in defense of that statement? If you explain, then I will know what not to say. What should I have said?

I’ve been here long enough for you to know that I don’t defend anything other than my own personal beliefs about weapons and my faith.

libertarians [...] are behind conservative lines fighting for social engineering everywhere

Substance bans are social engineering - it was Progressives who pushed for alcohol Prohibition - and just as that social engineering failed, the social engineering of current drug bans is failing in all the same ways.

Libertarians are also very devoted to promoting acceptance of the homosexual agenda at every level.

Social Engineering on a massive scale, tearing at the deepest roots of human existence.

Yep, that’s the liberaltarians.

Where is the evidence that 90% of drugs are imported?

without closing the border.

Since drugs can be hidden in legal imported goods, how do you propose we close the border to that traffic without bringing all importation to a grinding halt?

That is where you do err. These two issues are extremely important to Americans. To the majoority of traitors and parasites that put the muslim back in the White House,maybe not.

No Nation has survive when, as November 6, 2012 demonstrated, the majority is made up of traitors and parasites.
