The last link doesn't explain the poll at all, and it's absurd to think that more than 10% of Americans could oppose the North Carolina bill that left it up to property owners to decide how to handle the bathroom issue. You are full of it.
No, your excuses are full of it. Your side isn't winning and you're butt hurt about it. Meanwhile the majority is more than okay with evolving.

"Our members lived in South Bend when Mike Pence was governor," the group said in a statement. "We know all too well how his policies endangered or caused direct harm to public education, health care, women's rights, the environment, LGBTQ individuals, immigrants and refugees, reproductive rights, local infrastructure, the economy of our state, and more."

Instructions were quite simple: "Sit with a friend in your college," read an invitation titled "Taking Back Our Commencement.

Yet polls have legitimate data on their side ,you have nothing but your opinion.

Unless your a liberal lefty steer clear of Universities and Students, who generally have too much time on their hands and enjoy protesting at the slightest thing.

In terms of Univesities with religious affilations, this is more apparent in the US than some other parts of the world.

Yep.

Lefties use their rights to protest.

Righties use their rights to use guns.

Sounds like a plan. If they silently walk out. Works for me. Thumbs up to a left wing protest that does not involve beating people or not letting them speak.

I really don't have a party and I never have. I've voted for Rs and Ds for president in the past, and that's pretty much what I'd do again, depending on candidate.

Trump et al are simply a dumpster fire.

I guarantee you that if Trump was removed from office and Pence became president, all this furor would calm right down.

I think he got walked out on because he's COMPLICIT with this joke of a president.

I doubt it was because of Pence personally.

We've had conservative VPs before.
If Pence or any other non-Democrat were President, the DNC's propaganda wing would still be spinning around in circles crying wolf, and brainwashed Democrat voters would still be crying about how awful President X is for the country. Remember, these are the same people who thought Bill Clinton did not have sex with Monica Lewinsky and that a YouTube video caused a preplanned terrorist attack. They are not exactly critical thinkers.

The Democrats and the media (they are the same) lost all credibility long ago.

People ALWAYS find a reason to denigrate other people's choice and right to protest.

I'm really beginning to think SOME people have a problem with standing up to authority.
Sigh...right back at ya.

The first amendment affirms our right to be stupid and disrespectful and to express our stupidity and disrespect in a very public manner.


Again, I am not saying that people don't have that right.

I'm saying that people have a right to do all manner of things they shouldn't do.

But simply stating the obvious about what people have a "right" to do in these type of threads adds nothing to the discussion.
