pretty much. most people were perfectly fine with slaves existing, as long as slavery didnt spread anywhere else.
Best analogy ever.

whoever compares this law to slavery is kookoo for coco puffs.
so you're going to play stupid..got it..
New York moderate Nelson Rockefeller's defeat in the presidential primary election marked the beginning of the end of moderates and liberals in the Republican Party.
Clearer political and ideological lines began to be drawn between the Democrat and Republican parties as moderates and liberals converted from Republican to Democrat. Conservatives in the Democratic Party began to move to the increasingly conservative Republican Party.
By 1952, southern Democrats had concluded that they could exercise more influence through the Democratic Party and therefore returned to the fold. They remained in the Democratic fold, restive, until the candidacy of Republican conservative Barry Goldwater liberated them in 1964 by refreshing some of the Dixiecrat ideologies and therefore accelerated the transition from a solid South for the Democrats to one for the Republicans. Strom Thurmond switched to the Republican Party that year and remained there until his death in December 2003.

Since the implicit argument in presenting the poll results is that the law is good because the majority supports it, it seems perfectly reasonable to present an example where the majority failed miserably.Best analogy ever.
Obama is good because he won the majority vote.
whoever thinks I was comparing that is pretty dense.
I was comparing the fact that the majority of americans supported slavery back in the day, and they were morally wrong. So it's possible they are morally wrong here too.
now you are getting it
LoL. You are comparing it to slavery thus is why you brought up slavery.
why am i not surprised that went way over your head..
You mean over your head, genius.
Talk about bad analogies... we elect people, we don't elect legislation.
I'm not saying you are wrong, but where did you get this fact? Was there a poll?
You know those people that make laws? How do they get their jobs?
People elect people not laws. Apples and oranges.
I guess you're right, because lawmakers sometimes pass laws the majority of people DON'T like. This tends not to be good for the lawmakers (see Nov. 2010).
Evasion.
you are backtracking like a mofo. Racism had nothing to do with your post
No . Out of all the things he could have compared it to(George, you get it yet?), he went with SLAVERY!you are backtracking like a mofo. Racism had nothing to do with your post
Now I am hearing some high school basketball team in Illinois won't let the girls go to Arizona to play in a tournament. Kids and politics do not mix. The girls even raised the money themselves and some hole says they can't go because of their politics.
Let me know when the law says the police can ask someone for id because of the color of your skin.

Tell me under what conditions the law says they can ask. What is reasonable?
It's funny how each side pulls out these arguments depending on the issue.
Again, go google.
Again, if you can't explain it, just say so.
Have you read the law?
