You are right that many do fear and they mouth the words that are required, but when they go into the voting booth they need someone to vote for who is against immigration. I assume where you live is much like mine, not too many of those candidates. Those who fear are not lost to us forever.<br /><br />Mark moncrieffMark Moncrieffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07988061141727262837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-190326263026916588.post-91578315301114810812014-03-31T18:40:26.270+11:002014-03-31T18:40:26.270+11:00You haven't mentioned the biggest reason of al...You haven't mentioned the biggest reason of all - fear. The fear that by expressing (or even thinking) unpopular political views may lead to social ostracism, or in some cases you might even lose your job. Or you might find that the Department of Homeland Security (or the equivalent secret police organisation in your country) has suddenly opened a file on you for being a dangerous extremist. People who oppose immigration or any other part of the Left's agenda are simply too afraid to open their mouths.dfordoomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02306293859869179118noreply@blogger.com
