re: At any point in your life, were you a liberal?

I get called a liberal here regularly, but I've only ever voted for Republicans for president or Congress.

I'm still pretty socially liberal, but in the sense that I simply don't give a shite about most social issues. Your gay? Great, I don't give a frick. I'm not. I don't loose sleep over the abortion issue. I do fricking hate PC culture however. What I do loose sleep over is my insurance going through the roof. The only issue I give a shite about socially is guns. I'm pro second amendment to the point I would have been a single issue voter had I not agreed with Trump on fiscal issues. I want another Scalia on the court to solidify Heller.

Raise the voting age to 25

Yep, until my late 20s.


Every year that goes by, the closer I get to being a full blown ancap.

Admittedly, at one time, I leaned left. First year of college, before I had to work 80 hour weeks when I was starting my business only to get the shite kicked out of me by uncle Sam on April 15th.

The hit and run post is more a function of a busy job and posting from my phone when I'm bored. I can't always devote an hour to flushing out an argument.

And some shite that gets posted here deserves to be ridiculed and condescended (is that a word?). I'll engage in substantive debate when the topic and the posters warrant a decent effort.

There were times in my high school/college days I questioned by conservative upbringing but never went full lib.

Saw the light for good mid 20s.

Hell no

No

A 2nd amendment loving, pro life, environmentalist, who'd rather allow queers to have same sex unions (than marry) but still think they have a right to exist ... so yeah that makes me a liberal in your paint-by-numbers scheme.
