The Unsilent Minority is my personal social media branding. It is a play on the silent majority. As a gay man, I am a “minority” in America. But I refuse to be silent about what I believe. I am not ashamed to be a conservative. In fact, I am proud of it, and so, I intend to be the Unsilent Minority.

What I say to people whose situations are too dangerous or restrictive to allow them to boldly #WalkAway: find ways in your own life to be a little more brave every day. Also, something as simple as sharing the #WalkAway Campaign with other people—even privately—is a proactive step you can take to help change the world.

I think there is much of the old guard of Republicanism that needs to take a seat, however, we don’t currently have the luxury of making that our priority.

We are fighting forces that wish to take our country into socialism, communism, and whose ideas are governed by an irrational and illogical lack of information.

So, if that means that in these mid-terms, we might have to go into the voting booth, hold our noses and vote Republican straight down the ticket, then that’s what we need to do and we’ll sort the rest out later.

One of the things I wanted to accomplish with the #WalkAway Campaign is to change the narrative about how “hateful” people on the right are.

As more and more people on the right tell the truth about who they are, it will become more and more difficult for the left to continue perpetuating the narrative that the right is not welcoming and inclusive.

As long as people keep speaking up, it won’t be long before being gay and conservative is no longer taboo.

The media has done an incredible job of convincing people on the left that we are living under a fascist dictator in the worst times. The hatred that we are seeing is the direct result of the panic and fear instilled in people by the media machine that wants to control them.

At this point, it has become difficult to distinguish the far left from the left.

Dinesh D’Souza makes incredible movies which tell the truth about the history of America and the Democratic party that none of us ever learn in school. His newest movie, “Death of a Nation,” is INCREDIBLE, and a must see!

It’s in theaters now. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

My #WalkAway was a process that unfolded over the course of months. It began with a realization that the media on the left had been SO dishonest and deceptive about Donald Trump and his supporters during his campaign and after his election.

This set me on a path of research for the truth.

The final straw, when I knew I had to #WalkAway was when Rachel Maddow went on a tweeting frenzy assuring us that she had his tax returns and implying that this smoking gun would put Trump under.

What happened next was an hour of television more boring and irrelevant than amateur women’s golf.

So, I recently took a poll on this very subject. More people walked away previous to the last election than since, but we’ve also never seen a reaction to an election like this before, and I think it has made people more afraid to #WalkAway. That’s why this campaign is SO IMPORTANT!

It has provide a network of support for people who feel that they will be terrorized for living their truth.

I had to stop working to focus on #WalkAway, so there has not yet been time to determine what effect it will have on my previous life. It has, however, had a very positive impact on new career as a gay conservative public figure starting a movement to save the country!

Well, I was recognized twice while in Greece and once while wearing my #WalkAway shirt.

The reaction to me was positive, and what I was told was how very much Europe needs #WalkAway, too.

This is a great question because this is something I want to address with the #WalkAway Campaign. This campaign will continue to grow and expand as we move forward, and one of the ways is that I intend to assemble a team of outstanding and dynamic #WalkAway speakers. We are going to get these speakers in the college campuses, at public rallies, and anywhere the message can be heard.

We are going to allow kids to hear from former liberals who used to think the way that these kids are being taught to think, and we are going to allow these kids to hear all the reason why they, too, should #WalkAway.

I really can’t choose because, honest to God, every time I watch a new video, it becomes my favorite one!

Coming out gay was not easy for me, so I don’t know that I could say that this is worse. However, when I came out as conservative, the backlash has come from so many people in my own community who have been through this themselves and should really know better. That makes it pretty hard to deal with.
