Funny how these far-right wingnuts claim to be "defending the Constitution" from "anti-American socialist progressives", yet ignore the Constitution when it conflicts with their personal beliefs.  And obviously, they are so adamant about "states' rights" that they believe states should have the "right" to violate the Constitution. 

Yes, I disagreed with the SC's decision on gay marriage, but it's the law of the land, and trying to undo it is pointless.  Gay marriage is irreversible because now its supporters can legitimately claim that doing so would take away the constitutional rights of homosexuals.  And in all honesty, anyone who knows and understands the history of constitutional law in the US should have seen it coming 10 or 20 years ago.  It's time that my fellow supporters of traditional marriage concede defeat and move on.

From my experiences, the age gap is the biggest predictor of Hillary or Sanders support, and this applies to LGBT people as well. Although, younger LGBTs are probably somewhat more pro-Hillary.

Again, that's entirely anecdotal.

Gays are typically more affluent

No.

The sanitized Modern Family image of gays being a cosmopolitan, upper-middle class, well-moisturized white couple with adopted/surrogated kids living in a trendy, integrated urban neighborhood is a media fiction.

Inequality is probably worse among that gay community than the country as a whole. Homosexuality happens regardless of class, upbringing, race, location, or political views. Considering that more than 1/3 of all the homeless youth in this country are homeless because they were kicked out/ran away for being LGBT, discrimination is still rampant and there are few workplace protections, and the high rates of poverty among minorities, there is evidence that poverty among LGBT people is as high as 20% - 25%.

Plus, the high rates of homophobia in minority communities prevents many minority gays from coming out, and if they do, they are at higher risk of being kicked out as youth and ending up in poverty. Following poverty and gender patterns, lesbians have a higher rate of poverty than gay men, and transgender people have the highest, while bisexuals have the lowest.

Gay men tend to have a thing for strong independent women, think Beyonce.

And you wonder why people dislike the Republican Party

Loses... what exactly? There are multiple states voting. You can't seriously believe that if he wins all states but Ohio that Romney would have a better chance, right?

Also, it's interesting how you call Trump's performance so far sad, when Marco Rubio literally has won one state up to this point, and Cruz lost most of his base states in the South. It's going to be hilarious when Trump wins the Industrial Midwest and you attempt to explain how the GOP fell so far.

You guys brought this upon yourselves. You had a chance to fight back against this and defeat the Tea Party extremists. You had a chance to shift back to a more sensible conservatism. You didn't do that, and now it's time for the GOP to take a 1964 Goldwater type hit. Good luck.

You look pathetic as you beg, beg, beg for Romney to save your corrupt party. You try and hope that RUBIO, who is 1/18 so far can save you. Now you even hope Cruz can push and do something.

It's over. I have no sympathy for you. Trump is paying your base like a fiddle. People are angry, my friend.

It's less about who the new thread is named after than it is the fact that Sam Spade was a douchebag who doesn't deserve anything to be named after him.

Lmao. I love how the AAD cult is trying to turn Tony against Virginia (and failing entirely) because you can't handle the fact that one of your echo chamber's idols was a total douche who wasn't even that good of a poster.
