I prefer his position over the promoters of rapist and incest rights.

Really? That how you want to go about this?  Talk about straw man. 

You want to call someone pro-abortion as apposed to pro-choice , okay I can sink to your level.  Forget any complexity or nuance, go for the most emotional binary pejorative you can think of,  don't like it.

Ok...you got me. I’ll refer to you from now on as pro-murder. 

That's right your from Tennessee, now I understand your pro-incest rights stance.  Is the best pickup line still, "you awake sis".

Im from Minnesota and probably similar heritage to you. So if the shoe fits?

You didnt think I picked this cursed team on purpose did you?

I currently live in TN and frankly I’ll take my chances with the hillbillies over you liberals. You know how many innocent people have been pullled out of their cars and beaten recently here?

My wife has to drive through Kalamazoo, Indianapolis and Louisville Sunday night. I can assure you its not conservatives closing down freeways.  She is as apolitical as they come and even she asked me tonight about getting her carry permit.

You really want to ask that considering TN and the south's history with lynchings?

Tennessee a great place to live... I don't know maybe 2018 isn't recent enough. Hate crimes did get better there in 2019.

After compiling a variety of data sources, WalletHub has released its list of the most sinful states in America — and Tennessee made it to the top 10. 
The financial help website says the Volunteer State is the sixth most sinful state overall, but is ranked No. 1 in "anger and hatred" in a breakdown of specific sins.

In addition to anger and hatred, the study ranked states for jealousy, excesses and vice, greed, lust, vanity and laziness.
Tennessee was ranked third worst for excesses and vice and was in the nation's top 20 ranking for almost all of the other sin categories examined.

I know some people were expressing concerns about ACB and her religion but that is not it, Sonia Sotomayor is Catholic. No one is attacking ACB based on faith.

Evangelicals love to play the victim. This will turn into a "war on Christianity" on Fox. Just watch.  It actually plays well among conservative evangelicals, whose day isn't complete unless they're persecuted in some way. But it's a myth.

I know. It's so ridiculous and nauseating. Just like the mythical war on Christmas. And the talk about patriotic education in schools sounds like propaganda to me. The only religion that is not persecuted in the United States is Christianity. Of course there are plenty of charlatans playing Christians as well but some people don't seem to care. There is a happy medium between godless heathens and zealots, but the cons are always weaponizing Christianity. That doesn't make them Christianity, it brings the hypocrisy out into the light.
