Re: What individual rights does GOP support?
The only freedom modern Reps want is to be able to tell others how to live their lives. Note that it's a one-way street & that no one should be able to tell them how to live."If it ain't broke, you're not trying." - Red GreenComment

Re: What individual rights does GOP support?
For a good long time now, Republicans have uniformly supported policies that increase the number and lethality of guns in circulation, and opposed anything at all that would reduce either. This will inevitably result in more children (and adults) getting shot. Whether they care or not, I can't say, but they obviously think access to guns is more important.Last edited by Keith Wilson; 05-24-2023, 09:49 AM."For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations,

And doing everything they can think of to reduce or eliminate social safety net programs that benefit kids. Working to eliminate child labor laws that protect kids. Easing environmental regulations that keep air and water clean. Kids are far more susceptible to environmental contaminants because their bodies and brains are still developing. Eliminating school lunch programs.
The modern GOP doesnt give a damn about kids, especially kids that are not straight white Christian evangelicals.Comment

Re: What individual rights does GOP support?
"Pro life" but pro death penalty, anti-gun control, anti-support for children after they are born, anti-health care for all, "because we can't afford it" making us the lone developed nation without it, but paying the highest prices for third rate health care in the developed world. Most of all, anti-taxes, because "mine mine mine". And the strongholds of the GQP are in the misery pockets receiving far more federal support than they pay in already, while the states that pay more than their fair share tend to be nice places that are solidly blue. And the irony is not apparent here?Comment
