Long story short, I have been humiliated, beaten and harassed by Liberals in this part of the country. This has only made me stronger and I feel the Conservative cause is dying for.

I have had my Freedom of Speech censored at certain events hosted by Liberals simply because I expressed a different opinion from what they like to hear. Still, I do not hate them.

I am more than convinced that we Conservatives have a moral obligation to educate these Communists, Marxists and groupthink drones so that they can start realizing how absurd their ideas are.

Do not let a Liberal stop you from fighting for God, country and family. In the end, those are the values that matter most!

What liberal hosted events? This is actually an important ideal. If you go to a pro-gay rights rally to spread verses from the Bible about condemning homosexuals, only the biggest of idiots would consider that an unreasonable response. Or perhaps it was a non-political issue and you just happened to be in a crowd of mostly liberals. You could be describing either one of these two possibilities and both are extremely different. If it's the latter, I'm sorry about what happened to you. But if it was the first one, what the hell were you expecting to happen?

And by the way, you're freedom of speech is still in tact. You were allowed to speak, and they spoke back. That is what freedom of speech was. You're alive and not in prison, so the freedom stands.

There is not truth to claiming an idea is entirely absurd. If you've read the Communist manifesto, which I highly doubt you have, I think you'll find it's not entirely absurd. Unsustainable in certain conditions, most defiantly, but the core concepts of Communism in and of themselves are not actually wrong. They strive for an ideal; the method of getting there is risky, which is precisely why I don't think instating a Communist government would be the best way of creating a completely equal (which is what communism strives for) society. And group think is not a communist ideal. Everyone does it. Liberals tend to do it more, but conservatives still do it, especially those that regularly go to church.

By the way, Marxism and Communism are the same thing. You don't need to list both of them; it's redundant.

Those values matter most? How so? Not everyone believes in God, nor is there any reason to think that conservatives have a monopoly on God. Family is a personal thing. What liberal is after your family? I'm not saying there aren't any, but most probably don't care what you and your family are doing. And everyone who advocates a political ideal wants what's best for the country. Just because you disagree with what's best does not mean they are against the country. Unless they are. I've openly advocated by disdain for much of what our country has been up to in recent years, particularly regarding our unnecessary and counter productive (unless you are a corporation) involvement in the Middle East. I've been called anti-patriotic and even anti-Semitic for this, though neither are true. If I didn't care about the US, I wouldn't bother criticizing it. I want it to get better, so I actually care a lot.

Cool story. Let me ask you this...if you believe God condemns homosexuality, what does it matter if the government says they can get married if God will just turn them away in the end?

Typical Liberal response. Evasive and trying to dodge the issue at hand.

A true 'battle against liberals' will be defeating them at the ballot box.

Liberals are not open to considering the merits of their ideas and debating/defending them. They have only one aim, and that is to force their way on everyone, because they are deserving to.

Exactly! That is why I detest these group think drones who don't even understand how lucky we are to have all these rights that so many people died for. If this country was entirely run by Liberals, they would have already revoked the Second Amendment and replaced freedom of speech with politically correct BS. Resist!

Why do people say things like this? Saying something like this is basically the equivalent of not being "open to considering the merits of their ideas and debating/defending them."

There are a-holes on both sides. Some people are unwilling to compromise on the left and the right. Some are more than open to criticism and meeting common ground on both sides. Don't pretend one side is open minded and the other is not. That is far to simple a view to even be possible.

First and foremost, I am 100% opposed to gay marriage. I am for equal rights for people of same sex though but the mind of an average Liberal just does not seem to be able to grasp such simple concept.
