I never claimed I wanted anarchy - having the freedom for a gay dude to get married is much different from the freedom to run someone off the road. Having the freedom to use a gun for self defense is much different than the freedom to run into a post office and take out everyone you see.

Freedom with respect for the rights of others is much different then freedom with respect for the feelings of others. I don't CARE if it violates someone's sense of religious righteousness for a lesbian to get married, any more than I care if it violates someone's sense of religious righteousness for a woman to go outside not wearing a veil.




I don't give a crap what drugs someone does in his home, as long as he doesn't go out and drive or do something else that puts others in danger, and I don't care what kind of shed someone builds in his back yard, unless it collapses and kills someone, or leeches toxic chemicals into my water supply. I respect freedom of ALL KINDS, not just the freedoms that I was taught to value in a rural upbringing on the farm my great granddaddy built.
