    What's so horrible about unions?

    Thomas Jefferson said: If people fear the government there will be tyranny, if the government fears the people, there will be liberty. Replace government with authority entity as you please. Throwing generalisations aside, unions are both a blessing, but also a curse. Something they...

    Are you in favor of higher gun control(non-public poll)

    Is it reasonable to expect people to take martial arts classes and or arm themselves with melee weapons in order to defend themselves? Civilian registered weapons are a non issue in places that actually takes firearms serious. We've had 4 cases in the last 20 years where a legally registered...

    Syrian Strike Vote

    We shouldn't "strike" Syria. That's about as useless as it gets. If we want to commit, it needs to be all the way, with the clear goal of gaining control of the chemical weapons stockpiles. I think we could get a little more relaxed, if the Syrian regime could guarantee the safety and control...

    Are you in favor of higher gun control(non-public poll)

    In a perfect world I think most people would agree with you. Problem is that the world is flawed and per definition can't be perfect. Criminals will have firearms and otherwise be armed, should law abiding citizens not be able to defend them and their own, in their own homes? I could maybe...

    Are you in favor of higher gun control(non-public poll)

    Late to the thread, but this is misinformation. You can be licensed to own hunting weapons, and while they can't be semi-automatic, there's products that convert something like an AR-15 into a straightpull bolt action rifle. Also you can own muzzle loaded handguns, so cap and ball revolvers...

    But you said you were okay with abortion...

    Unless you signed a legally binding document, I don't think you can force anyone to an abortion, but you might be able to avoid fathership of the child, I'm no lawyer though so I don't know. Morally though, it should in all but a few exceptions be the mothers decision to have the baby or not...

    Does Israel have a "right" to Palestine?

    Jazzymom and Shermana I will take time and make my replies, don't have time right now though, just letting you know I aint a shoot and scoot poster, I will get around to it later today.

    Freedom, Equality, and gay marriage

    I know people of different religions marry, but as far as I know, gay people can't be married in Islam or Judaism either? Thought it was the same for all abrahamic religions? As I said, I have no issue with gay people getting the same societal rights, but make a new ritual for them that...

    Does Israel have a "right" to Palestine?

    For the most part it's pretty simple really: Some folks come with the backing of the worlds most powerful nation behind them. They now tell you to get out of your own home, where your family have lived for generations, because they claim to have some "right" to live there and you don't...

    Freedom, Equality, and gay marriage

    I disagree, I'm not Christian myself, but the act of marriage in the western world is a christian ritual, and as such, should not be tampered with. If gay people want to be united under a ritual, I suggest they find a religion that doesn't loathe and expel them. I understand this is harsh...

    Creationism in schools?

    Couldn't have said it better myself. There's methods and means to observe and explain science. We can't teach creationism in school because there's no evidence for this, the only evidence is "but god". I know people usually say that creationists use "intelligent design" as a way to circumvent...

    Are you with UN "global" law prohibition the provocation "mock/insult/lie", about all religions ?

    It's not, because it aint never gonna happen. If it ever did happen, it basically meant we succumb to the demands of religious fanatics and illiterate people living thousands of miles from where these statements take place. And yes, I seriously think you're illiterate and a religious fanatic...

    Are you with UN "global" law prohibition the provocation "mock/insult/lie", about all religions ?

    But see, that's the thing, I shouldn't have my freedom of speech affected, because someone, thousands of miles away feel offended. It really is as simple as ignoring and looking the other way. I understand where you're coming from with your arugment, but it can't be my problem that certain...

    Are you with UN "global" law prohibition the provocation "mock/insult/lie", about all religions ?

    Never shall we accept restrictions on free speech, never ever. The day this happens is the day I'll fight back. The issue here is not that people publish offending things about certain religions. The issue is that these people that take offense, are not capable of ignoring and looking the other...

    Cartones,burn Quran day,film, what next ?

    This is so true, and exactly my feelings. If I'm offended by something, that rarely happens anyway, but if I do happened to get offended, I'll simply look the other way. No one forced these people to watch the movie, watch the cartoons, and if they by some awful accident get to see it, if...
