Wow, I’ve been gone from this forum for a while, but stumbling back, I have found out that I am a pretty horrible person. I need to change my way….
Lets see, I believe the fed and state gov.s are spending too much$ on inefficient BS, printing money devaluing it by the second, unethically bailing out irresponsible people and companies, signing things into law that they don’t even read, and pretty much ignore many of the voices of their constituents and I voice my opinion legally, respectfully, and safely against these policies, I am a right wing extremist.
I believe in second amendment rights and I own guns, though I only shoot them legally at ranges, they are all legal and registered, and safely stored and handled, and I’ve never shot anyone or anything illegally, or even legally in self defense, and I am a right wing extremist. Many people here consider me dangerous and unstable and in the same class as Tim McViegh.
I just personally believe that marriage is best between a man and a woman, and that education of gay sexual activities should be left up to the parents discretion. I am cool to everyone I meet despite their sexual orientation. I have gay friends and co workers. I treat them like anyone else… yet I am labeled a “bigot” or something worse.
I personally can’t stand the constant propaganda and one sided media bias offered by most main stream channels like cnn, msnbc, etc… and happen to think that fox news is the closest thing to fair and balanced news I can find. I listen to other points of view, and when I disagree its respectful. I’m a right wing extremist.
I support our troops, and pray for them daily, and I would even hang out with them if the opportunity arises.
I think that the government trying to solve these problems is the problem.
I think people will do a bigger and better job dispersing their charitable donations when they get to decide to whom it goes, rather than having corrupt politicians decide for me and call it taxation or “spreading the wealth around”…and I make less than 50K per year.
Hmm, I have no criminal record, I have 2 kids, my wife stays at home for the most part. My cars are paid off. I give my neighbors respect. I expect no bailouts or hand outs. I have problems and I don’t blame them on others.
Despite most people that know me liking and respecting me, based on my opinions and the media/piggintonites, I am a right wing extremist, a crazy dangerous gun owner, a hateful homophobe, an anarchy loving wacko, a greedy rich person with no compassion, a confused Christian, and I make the world a worse place. Most people “would” take issue with me based on my opinions or the fact that I support the tea parties, rather than actions or disposition.
I guess the question is why the double standard with all the name calling? When I disagree with someone I don’t call them offensive names. The funny thing is that all of the tea parties I saw were everyday people acting civilized and respectfully. These people are hardly extremists and there are plenty more of them out there… and as people catch on to the gov. constantly duping us, the numbers will grow much faster.
