    Where the criminalization of behavior on the right?

    I am serious.
    The religious right is indeed the fringe, or if I'm wrong and they are not then you guys are in deep doodoo.

    Historically the religious have been strong components of both parties. Hell, the religious helped elect Carter. It wasn't until after he failed them that they turned right. Not sure why you're so hatefu of religion--oh, wait, more of that tear down tradition and build up something new, like moral relativism.

    I refuse to call a man a woman or woman a man. They think we are stupid and I am not playing their games.

    I'm OK with their playing that game, just not forcing me, not forcing society to go along with it.
