Well said! I too, would consider myself liberal on some topics, conservative on others. Frankly, I am apalled about what is happening at universities. Left leaning US presidential candidate Bernie Sanders had it bang on. Look what he said about people wanting to shut down extreme conservative commentator, Ann Coutler: 

“To me, it’s a sign of intellectual weakness,” he said. “If you can’t ask Ann Coulter in a polite way questions which expose the weakness of her arguments, if all you can do is boo, or shut her down, or prevent her from coming, what does that tell the world?”

Well said, Bernie! Well said!
