    This is one of the problems that liberals create for themselves which cause the middle ground people to hate them. The liberals go too far. (I have no idea what I’m classified as - right leaning liberal, left leaning independent, or whatever.) The left wing needs to stay out of how parents raise their children, except for cases of abuse. This isn’t abuse. I’ve personally asked social workers, who were patients of mine, if the number of cases of child abductions have risen and every one of them have said no. It just appears that way due to our immediate access to news, social media, and Amber alerts. I would take off on my bike Saturday mornings. I would be away from home all day. I just had to be hone before the street lights came on.

      I really fear for the family lives of folks living in liberal strongholds like Georgia.

      I don’t get you US americans with your political stuff, your terminology seems to be all over the place. Today democrats are libertarian, next day it’s the republicans. This is literally authoritarianism at play by definition, their liberties are taken away. And where does the evil left come from, that state seems to be run by Republicans, i.e. extreme rightwing.

      I mean, ever since your election the whole world knows your politics is broken beyond repair, but this is still bloody confusing to read.

        LOL. Yes. I totally agree. That’s why I said that even I don’t know what to call myself. People question me on my views and I’ve been called everything from a tree hugging hippie to one step away from being an authoritarian. Who freaking knows. I’m for everyone minding their own business and your rights end when they start to step on mine. Marry whomever you want - that is of age, dress how you like, read whatever you like, do whatever you want to your own body, and don’t try to dictate your beliefs to me. The slow burn of our country started a few administrations ago. People are just now starting seeing the smoke today.
