Liberals twist ‘bigotry’
In recent years, especially with the “first African-American president,” the notion is that anyone who disagrees with the liberal left is a bigot, racist, sexist homophobe. If we hold a position that is contrary to the left, it’s because we hate, and our side needs to be denigrated and maligned.
If our positions should also fall in line with biblical teachings, then they shouldn’t be allowed because of a mythical separation of church and state, which was to protect the church (people) from the state, not the other way around.
When I hear my side attacked and called domestic terrorists, hatemongers, etc., it only emboldens my resolve to see liberalism wiped out. I suppose that will be misconstrued as violent, but I think those who are truly reasonable and can think for themselves will see that eliminating something politically by convincing enough to your side isn’t violence, it is quite the opposite.
When I see the majority attacked by a very small minority, and labeled as bigots, it makes me proud to wear that badge of honor. If being a bigot means I oppose tyranny and ignorance, then by God I’m a bigot!
Knuckle-draggers for change!
