Random political views survey

description: I copy-pasted this directly from my Facebook, so, yeah. Anyways, fill it out with your own answers in a reply if you want. I think it's an interesting way to see peoples views on current events and politics. Warning: first question is dumb as fuck. Would you do meth if it was legalized? Meth would never be legalized due to the fact that it has zero actual positive qualities. Abortion: for or against it? Women should have the choice, but there should be a sort of background check and measures should be taken to make sure they have a damned good reason. Do you think the world would fail with a female president? Not at all. Germany had (might still have, not quite sure) a female chancellor for quite a while, and we're all still here. Do you believe in the death penalty? Definitely. There are some criminals that reach the point where they can't be rehabilitated, and it's a waste of state and federal resources to keep them imprisoned. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? I'm not entirely anxious for it becuase it would of course be abused, but I think overall it would do America's prison system some good were it to be legalized. It's not even a harmful drug, surprisingly. Are you for or against premarital sex? I think people can do whatever the fuck they want when it comes to bangin', but if they don't have the means or the will to support their reward... then they damned well better reconsider. Do you believe in God? I believe there is a higher power. God? Perhaps. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? Once again, I think people should be given the option to do whatever they want with their sex life. However, there's a fine distinction between legalizing gay marriage and legalizing outward displays of gay pride and all that comes with it. If you're gay, that's cool, keep it to yourself. I don't want to know. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? Yes, and it sickens me that we can't grow some fucking ba…

description: Would you do meth if it was legalized? No Abortion: for or against it? Neither, I'm for choice in the matter. Whether the person chooses abortion or not is their decision, not mine. Do you think the world would fail with a female president? No Do you believe in the death penalty? Yes, but not as a "payback punishment" but rather as an example to other people who break the law, making them less likely to do it. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? No Are you for or against premarital sex? No Do you believe in God? I believe in the idea of god, not a supreme being that is greater than us all. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? Yes Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? Keyword: "Illegally." Yes, I believe it is wrong to illegally move in. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? *I'm skipping this question. I have an answer but don't know how to word it without sounding like a douche.* Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen? No. Should the war in Iraq be called off? No. Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree? No. Do you believe in spanking your children? Yes. (I prefer hitting upside the head, but whatever... lol) Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars? (Those of other nationalities I suppose could replace American with whatever country they're from.) Yes. Who do you think would make a better president? McCain or Obama? McCain. Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers? I know people will judge me by reading some of my answers.

description: Would you do meth if it was legalized? No, I wouldn't. It's a damn dangerous drug, but more power to the idiots that want to destroy their lives. Abortion: for or against it? Against it. Embryo/fetus = human. Humans have the right to life. Rights need to be protected. Do you think the world would fail with a female president? No... Do you believe in the death penalty? No. The costs come out about even, as having to pay for all of the damn appeals. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? Yes. People should do to their bodies whatever they wish, as long as the act doesn't directly affect a non-consenting person. Everything else is abused, why should this, necessarily, be any different? Are you for or against premarital sex? Neither. I don't care what people do. Do you believe in God? I believe in *a* god, but not the God of Islam or the Judeao-Christian god. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? Of course. Again, do with yourselves as you wish as long as you don't negatively impact a non-consenting person. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? Yes. It's still the law. Come on over, if you want, but do it legally. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? She should bear the child, but I don't think she should raise it. Who the fuck lets a 12 year-old have sex, anyway? Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen? Yes. I can die in my government's wars, vote for the idiots that send me to war, blacken my lungs, get carpal tunnel from jacking off to porn legally, and get married without parental consent, but I can't kill my liver? Fuck that. Again, legal adults should have the ability to decide if they want to keep their bodies in good shape or continue to destroy them. As long as they don't drive drunk (and drinking doesn't mean someone is going to drive drunk), I couldn't give a fuck less. Should the war in Iraq be called off? Yes. We need to give the Iraqis an ultimatim. We can't force th…

description: Would you do meth if it was legalized? No. Abortion: for or against it? It's their choice. Do you think the world would fail with a female president? No. Do you believe in the death penalty? No, killing someone just because they hurt or killed a person or people just isn't very logical. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? No. Are you for or against premarital sex? It's their choice. Do you believe in God? No. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? Sure, why not as long as they don't rub it in people's faces. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? I don't care. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? No, a twelve year old should not be allowed to keep it their minds aren't developed enough yet, and if someone they knew looked after it for them and gave the child back when the mother was old enough to look after it would just cause problems. Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen? It's fine where it is. Should the war in Iraq be called off? Yes, it's a stupid and pointless war. Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree? Yes, but only if the person wanting to be dead is mentally healthy. Do you believe in spanking your children? For younger kids yes I guess but for older ones the effect starts to ware off(obviously). Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars? (Those of other nationalities I suppose could replace American with whatever country they're from.) Sure, it doesn't make a country. Who do you think would make a better president? McCain or Obama? They are both idiots and not fit to be the president of anything. Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers? I don't care, I welcome comments.

description: Would you do meth if it was legalized? Nothing lol. never even seen it, wouldn't ever do it Abortion: for or against it? Against unless it threatens the physical health of the mother Do you think the world would fail with a female president? No, (think Condelezza Rice/Sarah Palin) Do you believe in the death penalty? Yes, there are people that leaving them in prison wouldn't serve its purpose. I'm not going to expand on that just because Idk how to. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? No, its already a problem in the Netherlands Are you for or against premarital sex? I'm a Catholic, you figure it out. I think it is really bad idea as well just because the women have all the power in this if they get pregnant and men have no say period even if they want the baby and the woman doesn't. Do you believe in God? See first part of above answer. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? No, call it Civil Union and make sure that it is equal to marriage in everything except name. I don't want any homosexuals using a title that was originally designed by God for heterosexuals. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? Yes. If you want to come to our country, I'm all for it. Just do it legally and learn our damn language so you can at least talk to us. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? I'd give it up for adoption. A 6th grader having a baby anyway is just fucked up anyway. Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen? Yes. It is in Europe and they don't have any problems with alcohol just because it is in their culture. Also, if I can vote, drive, and give myself lung cancer, then I should be able to drink. Should the war in Iraq be called off? No. We are winning, and we shouldn't cater to the radical antiwar idiots just because they don't like it. Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree? Yes. If you can't do it your self, why get help? Assisted suicide should be considered murder. Do you bel…

description: Would you do meth if it was legalized? No, 'Hardcore' drugs don't tickle my fancy. Abortion: for or against it? Unless it will damage the mother, Or any other damned good reason, no. Do you think the world would fail with a female president? Yes, because women can't do what men can. Do you believe in the death penalty? Unless the convict killed three people, raped two, tortured another 2 people, killed a few kids and dug up some corpses, no. What gives you the right to kill someone? nothing. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? Yes, non-addictive drug that takes years for the tiniest serious illness to affect you if you smoke it regularly, If you want to destroy your own body, who the fuck can tell you, you can't? Are you for or against premarital sex? For, Not everyone believes in some religion / has such high morals their heads have no chance of coming out their asses. Do you believe in God? Agnostic. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? Yes, I don't see a problem with it. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? Yes, they take jobs at much cheaper pay and American citizens struggle getting a job. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? Sure, the stress of a mother will kick in and she'll realise in a few years how much of a dipshit she is, lesson learned. Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen? No, 16, Germany don't have a problem with it. Should the war in Iraq be called off? Yes, because we're not keeping peace and protecting the Western economy. Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree? 50/50, under certain circumstances. Do you believe in spanking your children? If they don't turn out to be brats, sure. Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars? Hell yes, $1,000,000 (£500,000) isn't easy to come by, besides, it's only a flag. Who do you think would make a better president?

description: Would you do meth if it was legalized? No. Abortion: for or against it? For it. Do you think the world would fail with a female president? No. Do you believe in the death penalty? Not really. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? Yes. It should be taxed heavily, and put in the hands of tobacco giants. Are you for or against premarital sex? For. Just make sure kiddies get good sex-ed. Do you believe in God? Depends on the day. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? Yes. Call it marriage too; heterosexuals have messed up that sacrament enough that it's almost trivial, so who cares. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? Yes. But the blame should be put on people who hire them, not on the people themselves. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? No. Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen? People find ways to get shit-faced at 14, so what's the biggie? Should the war in Iraq be called off? America should have an exit plan, and fast. They could really use the money. Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree? No. Do you believe in spanking your children? Yes. Only way I learned; other people my age with new-agey parents mostly turned out to be fuckoff's. Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars? (Those of other nationalities I suppose could replace American with whatever country they're from.) Yes. Hippie-dippie morons do it for free. For a million bucks, I'd hop into the sack with Hilary Clinton. Who do you think would make a better president? McCain or Obama? Mac. Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers? No.

description: Would you do meth if it was legalized? No. I would watch as all the idiots kill themselves with it, until only reasonably intelligent people are left. Abortion: for or against it? For me, it depends. I'd only be for it if the baby was to be born with a mental or physical disability that would severely reduce it's quality of life, or the result of a rape. Of course, it would be the choice of the parent. Do you think the world would fail with a female president? No. Do you believe in the death penalty? Only for the most extreme crimes a person can commit. (1st degree murder, etc.) Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? Yes, keeping it illegal is an obscene waste of police resources and taxpayer money. That, and I love a good toke now and then. Are you for or against premarital sex? I'm all for it. Ooooooooh yeeeeeeeaah. Do you believe in God? Not sure. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? Yes. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? Yes but, they mostly fill the jobs nobody else wants anyway. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? She should be required to complete High School or get something equivelant, otherwise her parents should take care of it, or a foster family. Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen? It's already 18 where I live. Ha ha Americans. Should the war in Iraq be called off? I think it should be. However, now that the USA has fucked everything up over there already, they shouldn't leve until Iraq has a competent government and military. Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree? I think it should be legal. Who wants to live their life stuck in a hospital bed? Do you believe in spanking your children? Yes. Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars? Depends on who would be offering the million dollars. Who do you think would make a better president? McCain or Obama? There are things I dislike about both candidates, but Obama is superior to McCain. Are y…

description: Would you do meth if it was legalized? No Abortion: for or against it? Abortion should only happen if necessary, if the parents aren't willing to deal with the baby, they can just give it up adoption. Do you think the world would fail with a female president? Depends on which female. Generally, no. Not for the reason of the president being female. Do you believe in the death penalty? Yes. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? No. People should just get over it, and move on with their lives. I don't care if it's "completely harmless" (regardless of actual research showing that it DOES have negative effects on the body) Are you for or against premarital sex? It's wrong when it comes to morals, but it really doesn't matter, as long as they aren't over-aged. Do you believe in God? Yes. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? Yes. There's no reason for same sex to not get married, however, if it isn't legalized, they should just get over it. Does a relationship really require a marriage? Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? Yes. They should consider legally moving instead. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? She should be able to keep it, but shouldn't be given full responsibility over the baby's care, since she's so young. Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen? No. Should the war in Iraq be called off? I honestly don't know enough about the matter to make a decision. Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree? Yes. Do you believe in spanking your children? Definitely. Children should be disciplined, trust me. Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars? (Those of other nationalities I suppose could replace American with whatever country they're from.) Sure, why not? Who do you think would make a better president? McCain or Obama? I'm unsure. They both don't seem very promising. Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers? No, but I know they'…

description: before i go, i want to note that i am a turkish muslim (racists like sadukar09 hate me but hey, who cares?) and i hope those ideas below will show you guys the point of view of an asian muslim man. enjoy. Would you do meth if it was legalized? it would harm my health pretty much so my answer is no. Abortion: for or against it? im for it if it will be done for following reasons: health for both mother and baby, economical reasons, mother would be too young. Do you think the world would fail with a female president? are they not human beings? Do you believe in the death penalty? according to islam, (there are many aspects to discuss this but i will tell you what i think) God gives you life, and only God can take it away. so, i support every kind of punishment, but not death penalty. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? see answer #1 (shortly, no) Are you for or against premarital sex? premarital sex is exteremly forbidden is islam, to protect the family. its also the second reason of why europe is getting older: "family" has been losing its importance since 70's. but anyway, everyone is free to do what they want. Do you believe in God? absolutely. too few muslims are athesit or deist under their muslim identity, unlike in europe (mostly in uk) and us. clicky: this shows the percentage of people in European countries who said in 2005 that they "believe there is a God". Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? we shouldnt do it just because alligators are doing it (u heard it right). its another thing that harms the idea of family. its against the nature of man. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? the question is, why are they leaving their country. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? she will be so young that she cant even say her name when you ask. maybe after she stops brestfeeding her child.

Yes, but for a good reason (not petty stuff like stealing cars or something) Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? Don't care, it wouldn't effect me or my environment. Are you for or against premarital sex? That's up to the couple, marriage these days doesn't mean much anyway. Do you believe in God? no Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? it's up to the couple, so yes. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? USA is supposed to be a "free" country. So no. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? If she can support it, if not then no. Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen? It already is... Should the war in Iraq be called off? No, unless I'm wrong, the only Iraqis dieing are the ones fighting. Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree? No, but, it would be used as an excuse for murder. Do you believe in spanking your children? No, this is a terrible way to be a parent. There are much better proven ways to be a parent without making your children paranoid as to the next time you will hit them. Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars? (Those of other nationalities I suppose could replace American with whatever country they're from.) Definitely, England is a dump I'd do it for £10. Who do you think would make a better president?

No. Do you believe in the death penalty? Yes, most certainly. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? Not wish, but I wouldn't vote against it. Are you for or against premarital sex? I am not, but that is me, I don't care what other do as long as it does not effect me. Do you believe in God? Yeah. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? No, but I don't think it should be illegal either, the government should have no power over marriage unless a person is under the age of consent. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? Yes. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? Don't know, I'll have to go with what the states say as it is not in the power of the Fed to control this. Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen? Yes, if you can fight for your country, smoke cigs until you have cancer, and vote you should be able to buy alcohol. Should the war in Iraq be called off? Called off? Sounds like it is a get together, what stupid verbiage. Anyway, yeah the war should be "called off." As it is illegal because it was not declared by Congress. Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree? Illegal, if a person can kill themselves it is fine, it's called suicide, anything "assisted" blurs the line between that and murder. Of course I see a difference between this and removal of medical equipment as you are "deassisting." Do you believe in spanking your children? Yes.

I'm not against abortion until week 10-12 or something like that, it's up to people to take their responsibility. I wouldn't do it myself, though. Do you think the world would fail with a female president? No, it would not: several countries have female queens and it works out well enough. I've always encouraged the right person in the right place. What I would not like is for someone to become president because she's a woman (positive discrimination is still discrimination!) Do you believe in the death penalty? I don't see why we need to pay for prisons for people that choose to kill others. Then again, it seems that our juridical system hasn't always been 100 % correct and never will be when judging people, making death penalty a dangerous punishment... Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? No, I see no plus value for the human race in drugs, alcohol, ... Are you for or against premarital sex? You need to make your own responsible choice. I'm not against but I respect people that choose to not have premarital sex. Do you believe in God? Yes, I do. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized? Marriage is nothing more than an official agreement of "sticking together", so there's no reason for it not to be legalized. However, I'm not that convinced by them adopting children yet... Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA? I'm not American, so I won't reply to this question. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it? No, she should not. She should however be strictly followed from that moment because 12 year old girls should _not_ become pregnant. Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen? It's 16 in Belgium and I see no significant problems with this. But as I said before: I don't drink anyway. Should the war in Iraq be called off?

Its not a parent's job to be their kid's friend. They are the kids caretakers and should correct the kids sufficently to what the kid was doing. If the kids did something bad, like bullying someone in the schoolyard younger than them, (this from kindergarten to about 3rd grade.) then they should be spanked. stuff like that won't be corrected by the parents telling the kid, "Don't do that because it hurts other people."

description: Oh, I get that just fine. It's just like people who refuse to drink because they see how their family members react to it or something traumatic happened with a friend/family member. The problem is, you're then trying to make public policy out of your personal convictions. I'll quote myself: Quote: It's always easy to argue the way you think things should be based on your personal convictions, but that gets dangerous if you're arguing politics. To try to suggest that your morality is the correct way to go about politics is wrong because everybody has a different view. Instead, I try to keep my morals to myself when I am debating topics like gay marriage, abortion, and welfare. Most people have good intentions and only want what they view is best for the nation, and what they view as best is usually what they hold to be their truths. A lot of neo-conservatives try to argue against homosexuality and gay marriage because they think homosexuality is immoral. A lot of bleeding-heart liberals try to argue in favor of government spending for welfare out of altruism. Doing this creates a problem because they actively ignore the rights of others while catering to their comfort. Instead, I argue based strictly on the rights of the individual. This is why I am in favor of gay marriage much like many liberals, but I am strictly against welfare programs like most conservatives. Siding any other way on these issues is a blatant disrespecting of individual rights. Morality should not be legislated. My opinion of whether or not homosexuality and welfare are moral is irrelevant whether or not these things should be legislated. If I were to view homosexuality as an abomination, that still doesn't change the fact that the act is not harming someone else. As long as the participants are consenting adults, there are no rights being infringed on. If I view charity as an absolute moral responsibility that we have, that does not change the fact that forcing people to give money out of thei…

Read the constitution by the way; the church doesn't run the government (at least, it isn't supposed to...)... by all means let a religion decide for itself who their marriages can count for when their own priests are officiating at their own churches.
