Antifa is a domestic terrorist organization. They are known to instigate fights, burn American flags, carry around communist flags, etc. There is nothing on the right that comes close to approaching the crap show that leftists have put on. Those on the right generally disavow violent offenders, while leftists seem to harbor and defend them.

But it’s conservatives who say they want small government yet want to control who people can love and what they can do with or put in their bodies.

Promoting small government does not mean you want anarchy and lawlessness.


We have a system by which laws are changed, and they are changing with the times. These changes don't happen overnight, but you can't argue that these changes aren't occurring.

What you want is to dismantle social safety nets so that the poor and needy are more reliant on churches and private sectarian-based institutions as opposed to the government. That’s a big reason having the right to discriminate as a public business is so important to you.

Long gone are the days of conservatives championing "small government." These days, they slobber all over military spending, micromanagement of abortion clinics, the drug war, government surveillance, minority and millennial bashing, pre-emptive invasion (of the wrong country), prayer in schools, government secrecy, bigoted and restrictive immigration policies, compulsory and prescribed salute during the national anthem, and race-targeting voter suppression. They do a lot of things and restricting government ain't one of them.

Well said. The GOP is no more the party of small government than they are the party of family values. In truth, they never were either of those things, but they are very good at duping the sheep into thinking so.

Half the country not only believes those things, but they believe Democrats are communist Stalinist baby killers whose ultimate objective is creating a hedonistic world government that persecutes Christians.
