Cultural tyranny reigns in America, the last step before full-fledged political tyranny. (snip) When people can’t put a bumper sticker for their preferred candidate on their car, they have suffered a loss of liberty. No Republicans who have paid even a little bit of attention expect the prevailing powers in Democrat areas to safeguard their property, or even their lives and liberty. The very reason for establishing a government has been upended. In this area, liberty-minded people almost operate like a secret society sending quiet signals to one another. Democrats in this country do not feel they need to hide their political allegiance or culturally approved viewpoints.

My wife is a public school teacher and she does not feel that she can safely express her political preference of presidential candidate with a yard sign or bumper sticker. The union goons will make life miserable for you, not to mention the flaming "progressives" who comprise much of the faculty.

The most insidious aspect of this cultural tyranny is one cannot even keep his private thoughts to himself!
“That’s the whole idea behind the “silence is violence” aggression. Cultural violence is quite the opposite of silence; it is forcing people to say what no sane person should believe in order to not be destroyed.”
Sixty years of liberal education has diluted the strength of our national character. We are now a nation of conformist sheep! Just stepping out to the store is a reminder of how pervasive the oppression by our democrat governor is; almost everybody is masked! I don’t mask at Home Depot. The only store I have been going to. I’m in a tiny minority. It’s depressing to see how many sheeple submit to wearing what one writer, Judith Acosta, calls “an American niqaad.”
Bad times are here. Really bad times.

I work at a university and there is no way I could put a Trump sticker on my car. It would be vandalized in moment. When my supervisor found out I voted for Trump she gave me a pitying look and told me she thought I was smarter than that.

That's why we're called "The Silent Majority". In November, watch us Roar!

I've seen too many videos of people stealing Trump yard signs and cars with conservative bumper stickers and a full length key scratch down the side of the car. Everyone on this site has seen or heard of people with MAGA hats being attacked. It's not worth it to advertise your political leanings. Apparently, intolerant right wingers haven't adopted the tolerant left's proclivity for violence or intimidation. Of course, if conservatives were to play the intimidation act on liberals, the lackeys in the media would be screaming from the rooftops. It's a lot like the 'knock-out' game or 'polarbear' hunting. Never any mention of the thousands of instances of those acts, but let a conservative look at a liberal wrong and it's a micro-aggression worthy of 24/7 coverage. Just carry concealed, train your loved ones to protect themselves and do your speaking at the ballot box!

Amen, #5. A family member of mine went to purchase her first gun 3 weeks ago and still has not received approval on her background check. I don’t think that she has ever had even a speeding ticket. The gun store says that national sales are up 82% over this time last year and that is the reason for the delay - the system is overwhelmed.
I don’t have a Trump sticker on my car but I do have an American flag and an NRA decal. I figure those two items tell everyone exactly where I stand and my car has not been vandalized.

If there ever was a time for those of us in the "Silenced Majority" to speak out, it is this November 3rd! Go VOTE like your life depends on it, because it does.

Unless I am mistaken, most of you fine folk here voted for DT in 16. We won the election and yet here we are, 4 years later, worse of as a Nation. Sure, if HRC had won we would be even worse off but that still leaves us worse off now, after winning. This Country has ended up worse off after every election since RR. We have won 20 years worth of elections and yet, here we are talking about the most important election in our life time. Do you see a trend here? After winning half the time, we are much worse off as a Nation today. Yes, voting is important but not as important as standing up for America even if it means quiting your job when a boss says you are stupid for voting for DT or collecting insurance from racists that damage your car if you put a Conservative sign on it or moving away from an area that steals your yard signs, etc etc etc. In other words, if you are not capable of defending your rights by actions, only by voting, then this is the world you get.

I don't feel comfortable putting a Vote For Trump decal on my car but some big black muscular dude can walk around Walmart, wearing his I Can't Breathe mask and not think a thing about it. That's where it is.

I've had thousands f dollars damage to my car, I've been accosted in store parking lots for having car flags on my car being asked what makes me think America is a great country and don't I know it's a racist country!? I guess only ''THEY'' have freedom of speech! But you can still see Bernie and Biden cars with no damage to their commie trolleys! DISGUSTING!

Mark Levin gave an indication of this roughly four years ago when the FBI IG's report first came out. Out of millions of pages it contained several hundred thousand FBI employee e-mails. When Levin found an absence of any pro- Trump e-mails he had a team of experts go though it with special software. While there were expected number of pro-Hillary mails (including the infamous Strzok/Page dialogue) there literally was NOT ONE pro-Trump. There was more dissent in Nazi Germany under the Gestapo!

I have photos of the Trumps on my fireplace mantle. Last July 4th I had friends over to watch fireworks in a local park. One of the liberals I invited started snarking about my Trump pictures, only to find out that everyone but her was a big Trump supporter. She shut up in a hurry.
