No Zealots!!!

Hopefully you noticed that one of "the rules" was NO ZEALOTS!
Why, because zealots are blinded to alternative points of view. They are hopelessly locked into a mindset that they will not allow to be examined, contended or (parish the thought) changed. They are completely invested in their own interests and deliberately callous to any opposing thought.
I believe that zealots are the worst of the worst, and beyond their particular brand of zealotry, interchangeable. That's right, not a pennies worth of difference between them. The most whacked out left wing loon is no better than the most self righteous right wing fanatic.
Have you ever noticed that if you take one zealots battle cry and replace the nouns, you have a polar opposite zealots battle cry.

i.e. Any legislation limiting a woman's right to chose is a direct erosion of Roe V Wade.
to: Any legislation limiting the right to bare arms is a direct erosion of the 2nd Amendment.
to: Any legislation limiting limiting access to the Internet is a direct erosion of the
1st amendment.

It seems that the common elements of zealotry are "Legislation" and "Erosion".

To their credit, our founding fathers legislated that our rights should never be eroded. They also clearly laid out that the role of the government should not be too intrusive on the lives of the individuals. To the exclusion of the 18th amendment (which didn't work out to well) most if not all legislation through the 1970's protected and empowered all Americans to be equal in the fundamental liberties promised by the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Somehow in the 70's there was a dramatic shift in the direction of legislation and since then it seems that every time a bill is passed, some liberty is lost.

Zealots have taken over. Too much is never enough.

Please prove me wrong!

Is it possible to live in the middle? Can we still be fair to all?

Reply with any legislation that you feel is equal in it's protection of our basic rights.
Or just vent using Common Sense.
