Who said anything about capping taxes - how about the purposes to which they're
put - but you knew that.

I suppose you've heard about your buddies trying to get laws passed to
make it legal for consenting male adults to have --- in public
restrooms.

Just saying that liberals (ACLU, etc.) would not support anti-sodomy
laws but they would also not make it a top priority to pass
anti-pedophilia laws. The word "equate" does not apply here - look it
up in the dictionary. Both acts are morally repugnant, but not equal.
Integration is not repugnant. Genocide is. But, once again, you knew
all of that. I started to say you are just pretending to be stupid, but
that wouldn't be exactly accurate either.

It's a truth that one of democracy's worse points is that people, when
they discover that they can vote themselves something for 'free', will
do so.
It's human nature.
