I know for a fact there are plenty of conservatives who don't care whatsoever who marries who including myself. That ship sailed a while back. Try something else.

Which side keeps screaming tolerance though? That's the point. The loons on the left are - only they aren't.

Just because some conservatives are apathetic doesn't mean that the majority of the population against marriage equality are conservative. Try something else? I'm pointing out something that's blatantly obvious.

I only know one conservative who cares about any of that. All but one are for rights of those in the LGBTQ community.

More people would be aware of this if they got out of their liberal social circle.

Both the far left and the far right are equally absurd. That's the one thing I've noticed about this forum, you are either liberal or conservative. Agree with us or disagree, having a nuanced opinion is frowned upon.

Pence is going to be our VP so his views matters.

Homophobes don't deserve respect.

Same here, most people that I know that identify even remotley as conservative dont even have gay marriage on their radar. Most just want to earn a living and not have the government trying to control their lives.

I always say I'm all over with my politics and don't feel I fit in either party, so I agree with you there. Both extremes are bat****e crazy.

Exactly. Live and let live. The one person I know who is super religious and thinks homosexuality is a sin was shocked when only son came out of the closet. Karma. God will teach you to love those who are different somehow.
