Not at all. It just seems to be the ones that have a massive arsenal of weapons complaining the most, or the ones that have to pay taxes, even though they are relatively low.

And? Everyone should disagree with what you disagree with?

In find most Conservatives are very well informed and more level headed than the liberals.

I don't get how the OP thinks that conservatives are more conformist than liberals.

Conservatives tend to be more skeptical and critical towards our rulers(government). Yes of course liberals talk smack about our politicians too but at least they tend to believe in the jobs that government workers are doing as noble and needed unlike many conservatives who think gov workers are overpaid and doing a lot of jobs that are unneeded or could be done better by the private sector. So who is more conformist to "the man"?

For conservatives freedoms are owning guns, and what else?

It's a crap law. Subject to American apathy.
Here and there someone objects to it, but the majority remains silent.
An afterthought: The wave his flag in your face and recite the pledge with "under god" American need not worry much about the NDAA. That law may be of concern to Americans who are muslims, reporters who investigate various misdeeds of the government and/or CIA, and any activists who gain prominence.

Or Obama will use it to imprison Beck, Limbaugh, Hannity, or anyone else he wants to silence.
