    it never fails that idiots, when confronted with freedom they don't like, fall to fascism and dictatorship of federal power to force others to do things they would never do in the first place
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    Now that we've got all the "equality" in the military, I guess women and trannies would be eligible for the draft too.

    Hmm. Most of the youngsters who serve now are conservative guys even before they're indoctrinated. Most of 'em join because they don't have job skills, there are few decent jobs in their area, or (rare) they want to be a military person. Of course that's assuming that they even vote. Bet most of 'em don't even though they tend to hold conservatives "values" (an oxymoron there).

    Liberal guys tend to go to college. Don't forget how you're supposed to mock ppl who go to "liberal" universities and get all uppity and elite-y because they have degrees.

    that's an awful lot of assumption you're making, don't you think? most of those joining don't have any idea of what job skills they have, so they look to the training that they'll be given.

    I find it interesting that liberals tend to demand government training for things because of 'safety', yet denigrate those seeking that training as people who have no future or are less intelligent.

    Is it all liberals that think this way? or just the snobbish ones who imagine that they are better than the average person?

    Speaking of assumptions.... what does this even mean? Do you have an example of liberals demanding government training for "things"? Like what things? Flying an aircraft? Driving a passenger bus? Working on electrical lines? I wasn't aware that "the government" trained anyone for those jobs... but they do have standards in place to ensure that whatever training is received is adequate.

    As for the remarks about education, I have stated numerous times here and elsewhere that I am in favor of public-supported two-year community college and/or trade school for everyone. What you do after that is up to you -- continue on to university. Get an apprenticeship in your trade. There's absolutely *nothing* wrong with working in the trades, and almost everyone feels that way as well. It's only a certain small percentage of the brainwashed who believe that "liberals" look down on those who have careers as electricians, mechanics, plumbers, carpenters, draftsmen, etc. We need them a lot more than we need another lawyer or English lit major.

    owning or carrying a gun, braiding hair and adding hair extenstions, plumbing, etc. for even the most minor menial things that any average human being should be able to do, you liberals demand that the government provide guidelines and training so they can hand over a permission slip/license allowing someone to do such a thing.

    why should something like that be made a government program that will eventually destroy those trades and careers with it's grubby encroachment? why shouldn't responsible parents partake of their childrens education and career path?

    There would also be a bunch of conservative males who stop trolling and start voting for real candidates.

    that would imply that most conservative males can think for themselves. we all know that most of them are incapable of that.

    Granted, but when the threat of war is near, they'll grow up real fast. Most Conservatives don't think for themselves because they have arrested development.
