I had a hard time with the poll. I don't really consider myself pro-life or pro-choice. Personally, I don't think I would have an abortion, but I can still understand why some women might choose to do so. I hear about cases of abuse and neglect and, although it may sound cruel in it's own way, I have to wonder if that particular child I hear about on the news would have been better off had he or she not even been born.
As far as SSM, I think that, as long as it's another person of legal consensual age, a person should be able to marry whomever he or she wants without the government having a say in it. It's not the government's or anyone else's business, IMO, who a person decides to marry or have a relationship with, so I suppose that makes me pro-SSM.
I'm definitely pro-2nd amendment. I am a strong believer in protecting ALL of our rights as citizens. I think they are all extremely important and all serve an important purpose in maintaining our freedoms. I don't believe that the government should be able to interfere with or infringe upon any of our rights, and I think those who DO want the government to intervene are traitors to American citizens.
Although I don't have a huge issue with Obamacare, I'm certainly not a fan of it, and I would like to see something done that would actually decrease the costs of our healthcare, because THAT is where the real issue lies. I know that malpractice insurance plays a role in this, and there should be limitations on the dollar amount a person can collect as a result of these suits. Malpractice insurance can cost an individual doctor $120,000 a YEAR, and THAT is just outrageous. I don't even KNOW how much a clinic or hospital has to pay. No wonder they charge us $10.00 for an aspirin or $50.00 for an IV bag of salt water when we go to the hospital! :roll:
I am pretty much strongly against the death penalty. I don't want my government killing citizens at it's whim, it's super expensive, it's time consuming and clogs up the justice system, it's cruel and unusual, and innocent people have been and sometimes are put to death. That is disgusting IMO when it is completely unnecessary because those killers can be given LWOP.
hi chris .if you ask me l blame the jurisdiction for innocent ones being sent to death ,not teh death penalty.
