I know a number of young college professors and they report this all the time. Whenever the subject comes up in classroom or social settings...it's a yawn. It's not an issue. And as us geezers die off, particularly the moronic right-winger geezers, it's gonna become even less and less an issue.
There are still plenty of younger Americans who have bought the conservative religious/social/political line from their bigot elders...sure there are. But as time goes by they will be finding themselves as members of a continuously shrinking segment of the culture. Tough shit for them.

I've noticed this listening to the younger crowd at work.
And it leaves me with hope for the future after all.
Although, I'm sure their are such moronic parents across the country teaching their kids to hate anyways. Oh, geez, my bad! It's not "hate", it's "love for ones child" to steer them away from "deviant" relationships by instilling a loathing for "those people" in them at a young age.
Kind of like the KKK now claims they don't hate non-Christian, non-whites.......they're just expressing their abiding love for the white race.
