So I talked to a liberal friend of mine who I have known through many years on social media. He's a teacher out in Los Angeles and he shared with me some data that we may be able to fall back on with hope. He claims that almost 3/5 middle schoolers in the Los Angeles area are pro-life. He also claims an "alarming" number of them are also in favor of traditional marriage only. Many more are in favor of less taxes and more economic freedom. And when he asked his class which they would be more in favor of: liberty or equity, the vast majority of them chose liberty.

He seemed pretty down and out about the above figures so it's very possible that yes, Generation Z is as conservative as many say they are.

3/5 adults are prolife. This country has never been otherwise, that's why the court had to create the right to abortion, not the legislature.

The next generation is more conservative because younger generations tend to be rebellious and the being conservative is now the rebellious thing to do.

Also, kids in school are the ones who have to suffer the most from the SJW lunacy taking over schools.

Kids just wanna relax, have a good time, go to parties, act silly, etc.

And the whole time they are doing this the SJW mob is there demanding their fun stop because it's somehow offensive to someone somewhere.

Also they are the one getting mugged and assaulted by the hoards of immigrants flooding this country. Their attitudes are much different than the sheltered millennial brats who grew up in a bubble of comfort and privilege.

Why do we concern ourselves with the opinion of middle schoolers? They simply regurgitate what they hear their parents say.

When they get older and go to a Berkely type university all that will change.

What kind of nonsense is this? You’re basing your hopes on middle schoolers understanding the nuances and complexities of our biggest domestic issues?

Do you understand how easy it is to get the answer you want out of kids?

Hey kids, do you want MORE or LESS on money on your paycheck?

Hey kids, are you in favor of killing babies before they are born?

Wtf, do you think they going to say?

What do these middle-schoolers look like?
These values are not uncommon with Hispanics (some of you may know them as Mexicans).
