Guns and The Culture War

I do greatly appreciate they way David Brooks thinks.
NYT How Progressives can Win the Culture War

Now I wonder if Hard Right Conservatives will ever learn to be more rational and pragmatic with regard to social issues, or if they will keep losing credibility with the thinking citizens of the USA?

Do you think the hard right tribe won with regard to LGBT rights?

You have heard of losing battles and winning wars. Correct?

I suppose right wing members of the gay community did ok.

Personally I think all LGBTQ folks are better off than they were 30 years ago.

Even though for a long time it looked like the Religious Right had the power.

This changed because the majority of American grew to understand that the religious right folks were a bit whacko regarding the topic.

Now as more kids die on tv because of excessive gun freedoms... The culture is starting to shift in a similar manner.

10 years ago, no companies dared to treat the NRA as an extremist group. Now they are happy to do so.
