I keep seeing comments in the media, on this board and elsewhere throwing around the label “right-wing extremist”. While I understand the need for some to marginalize a viewpoint instead of debating it, I am left wondering what people must think a “right-wing extremist” is.
I consider myself to be a “traditionalist” and am:
1. Pro-life,
2. Pro 2nd Amendment,
3. for a small government,
4. for a reduction in taxes,
5. for traditional marriage (but support a change in laws for equitable tax rates, etc.),
6. opposed to government interference in health care,
7. for minimal government regulation of business,
8. strict enforcement of immigration laws (including border protection),
9. for Gitmo,
10. opposed to granting terrorist the same Constitutional rights as legitimate Americans,
11. Pro death penalty,
12. for strict interpretation of the Constitution.
This is just a quick-list off the top of my head but hopefully you’ll get the idea.
Is this what you consider a “right-wing” extremist”?
