No? :dunno: I'm saying it's complete wrong and incorrect to imply that one party doesn't care about rights and the other one does? Just because it's a right you don't value doesn't mean it belongs only to certain people, or to no one.
I'm sorry for your impending loss of gay marriage rights and birth rights.
I'm not implying one party cars about "rights" and the other doesn't. One cares about the rights of themselves and their bible, while one cares about equal rights.
At the end of the day, first and second amendment rights apply to everyone, they affect everyone. If a pregnant transexual zebra wants a rifle, they can buy one. Meanwhile, women's, minority, and gay rights affect specific groups.
No one has impending loss of rights, and I think you have a wrongheaded idea of rights. Minorities, women, gays, do not and should not enjoy "special" rights. Rights are universal. If they aren't universal, they aren't rights. If the enumeration of a "right" has to be worded in such a way as to impact only specific groups, then what you are describing is not a right. If a right has restrictions on it for only certain groups, then you have injustice. But "gay rights" apply to everyone, and must.
