    The fearful, the Wanton and the Seers
    I have heard man announce their fear of Mike Pence, the Vice President of the United States of [North] America more than they fear Donald J. Trump. Here is a glimpse into why the Left/Liberal/Progressive Movement Agenda (whom I call some of the lawless bunch) fear Mr. Pence:

    Abortion

    As governor of Indiana, Pence signed the most abortion-restrictive regulations in the nation, banning abortion even in cases where the fetus has a “genetic abnormality” such as Down syndrome and holding doctors legally liable if they had knowingly performed such procedures. The law also required that aborted fetal tissue be buried or cremated. Following the Supreme Court’s decision in a landmark abortion case in June, a federal judge blocked the law from going into effect.

    He led the national fight to defund Planned Parenthood and forced so many of its clinics to close in Indiana that he triggered an H.I.V. epidemic in one county.

    LGBT Rights

    in 2015, Pence helped pass one of the nation’s harshest “religious freedom” laws that would have protected businesses who wanted to refuse service to LGBT people if they cited religious objections. After businesses pulled out of expansion plans into the state, Pence signed an amended version of the law that was nominally intended to provide protection for sexual orientation and gender identity.

    As a congressman, he opposed federal funding that would support treatment for people suffering from H.I.V. and AIDS, unless the government simultaneously invested in programs to discourage people from engaging in same-sex relationships.

    He has resisted changes to hate-crime laws that would have included acts against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. And he was against the end of “don’t ask, don’t tell,” a Clinton administration policy that allowed gays to serve in the military.

    He has said publicly, “I long for the day that Roe v. Wade is sent to the ash heap of history.”

    Immigration

    In 2006, Pence proposed an immigration compromise that envisioned a guest worker program that required undocumented immigrants to “self-deport” before returning to America legally. His plan did not offer a path to citizenship, nor did it propose a “deportation force.” He’s down with the big beautiful wall. He fought against having Syrian refugees settled in Indiana.

    Education

    Under Governor Pence, Indiana has diverted $53 million in the past two years from public school to funding vouchers for private schools, including religious schools, and to charter school programs. He was the first governor to try to repeal Common Core. Pence earned an F on the official NEA legislative report card in eight of his 12 years as a member of Congress.

    He was one of only 25 Republican congressmen to vote against George W. Bush’s “No Child Left Behind” initiative.

    The Environment

    He is skeptical of climate change and wrote a letter to President Obama threatening to disobey the new regulations on coal mandated by the Clean Power Plan.

    Trade

    In 2014 Pence tweeted, “Trade means jobs, but trade also means security. The time has come for all of us to urge the swift adoption of the Trans Pacific Partnership.” Presumably, he has, or will, walk that one back.

    Guns

    Take a wild guess. He has an “A” rating from the NRA and is opposed to any restrictions on assault rifles.

    Of course, in the article cited, there is mention of issue that are intended to malign Mr. Pence, so it is with the Liberal/Progressive/ Leftist Movement, they hate everyone who is not for the promotion of perversion. I have even read a rumor that Mr. Pence is CFR; I looked it up and did not find his name on the roster. The things people do to malign others. Though Pence is a Christian and I am a Muslim, I like his stance on many topics. I fear no one and I fear nothing, except maybe being gunned down by Rainbow Bright, NYUK NYUK NYUK!
