Freedom to control every aspect of your life, from conception to grave. Well, that and keeping people of color in their rightful places, which generally means out of sight and in chains.

Republicans really seem to believe that the only way to Make America Great Again is to destroy any social progress made in the last 100 years. Turn the clock back on women's rights, return to Jim Crow, and to bring Jesus into every home (under gunpoint if necessary.)

They hate us for what we have done to them... and many of them are perfectly willing to kill you for it. It is the patriotic thing to do.
