Fair enough. I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt and don’t like to think the world is blank and white. Sorry to everyone if I came off as a dick in my initial response; Not my intention.

you didn't come off as a dick. i just think you were wrong. i give everyone the benefit of the doubt too, but people who wear conservative colours remove all doubt when they put on their uniforms. a conservative set of beliefs implies certain actions and behaviours, and literally every single one of them is destructive socially, and most of them are destructive to me personally.

i see a conservative, and i know i'm in danger. whether they say "you know i actually don't have a problem with gay people!!" or not
