I never mentioned support for. What I did say was most people, afforded the “right” to marry the same sex, could care less if that right was removed from them. And that’s 97% of the total population.
In comparison, I would expect the vast majority, regardless of sexuality, appreciate that they have the right to marry outside their race.
As the poll demonstrates elegantly, plenty would object if the right were stripped from everyone. Including same sex couples.
Conservatives are on the losing side of this issue because they can't come up with a credible reason to justify stripping gays and lesbians of the right to marry someone of the same sex.
And of course, interracial marriage is one of many, many rights conservatives are determined to strip from Americans. Conservatives want to eliminate the right to privacy, the right have relations in their own bedroom with any consenting adult they wish, the right to contraception.
And that's just to start.
And then there's the snitch state that conservatives are trying to establish, putting bounties on speech or abortions.....encouraging people to rat out their friends, family, even teachers for a heavy reward. A policy that is hugely popular among conservatives, with more and more conservative states pitching the policy to offer bounties for you to turn on your own family.
This is the conservative vision of the future. And it is an authoritarian nightmare.
