I'm noticing a trend in certain a certain conservative subgroup. It seems they are pro-gun ownership, xenophobic (i.e. they hate mexicans and blacks, muslims...and probably everything else under the sun that isn't white) and pro-life. There's something very strange about this idea that you can be pro-life (anti-pro choice) and yet be some of the worst human beings on the planet - pro-war, probably even pro-slavery, and most definitely bigoted and desiring social stratification. These people reflect almost exactly what kind of mindset you'd need to be a functional part of Nazi Germany...I mean why are we okay with this? How are we going to deal with this? These people vote, and they vote LOUDLY - people of their mindset get out and actually vote for candidates they want. They have a loud enough voice where they can actually produce change to their liking in politics. Isn't that incredibly dangerous? For all the technological and scientific advancements we've made, we're still producing offspring that THINK like this?

I just don't see a good solution to these people - I really don't. I'd love to know what we're supposed to do besides hope "good" wins the battle, because as far as I can tell, advocating and being outspoken and trying to change opinions (moderates or not) is basically impossible.
