Conservative values Quote by John Hawkins
““Many millennials...feel “unsafe” if someone they disagree with speaks at an event they don’t have to attend on their campus…they’re trying to figure out what gender they are and which bathroom they should be using. It’s not an improvement…Snowflakes may melt when the going gets tough, but kids who are taught good, conservative values will stand tall even when it’s not easy.””
