Assisted suicide is illegal..do you agree?

Do you believe in spanking your children?

Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars?

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case..what do you think?



Mine:



Would you do meth if it was legalized?

Not in a million years.
That's crazy talk!



Abortion: for or against?

Pro-choice. I know, it's murder, and I would not personally choose abortion, but others should be able to. Nobody understands their situation better than them.



Would our country fall with a woman president?

No. But if that woman president were Hillary, well yes.



Do you believe in the death penalty?

Yep, some people deserve that stuff, and we can't afford to keep everyone who does in prison for life.



Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?

No, I actually wish that it was more difficult to get away with having. I've seen it screw up too many people.

:[



Do you think its wrong that so many Hispanics are moving to the USA?

NO! America is based on different cultures, races, and religions coming together. We can't suddenly decide that a certain group of people are unwelcome.



A 12 year old girl has a baby..should she keep it?

No. If she chooses to actually have it, I think it should be put up for adoption immediately.



Should the alcohol age be lowered to 18?

No. Too many teen drinking accidents happen anyway.



Should the war in Iraq be called off?

Honestly, I don't know anything about the war in Iraq


Assisted suicide is illegal..do you agree?

Go Kevorkian! lol. Assisted suicide is better than finding a person who had committed suicide all disgusting. That could REALLY screw up a person.



Do you believe in spanking your children?

I haven't actually thought about it.



Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars?

Yes. It's a part of Freedom of Expression. If someone wants to burn our flag..rock on, and way to use your constitutional rights!



A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in
a temporary insanity case..what do you think?

Not cool. If it happened once it can happen again, lock her up or have her killllled.

Would you do meth if it was legalized? No. While I respect someone's right to mess with their body, I respectfully decline to damage mine.

Abortion: for or against? Poorly worded question. I'm not for abortion, very few people actually are. I'm for the option of abortion being available, without parental notification or consent, abortion being federally and locally funded, and available to those underage. However, I'm not encouraging it either.

Would our country fall with a woman president? No.

Do you believe in the death penalty? I believe it exists, yes. This is another poorly worded question. It should be, "Do you think the death penalty is acceptable?", to which I answer "no".

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? Yes.

Do you think its wrong that so many Hispanics are moving to the USA? No, as a white, Canadian immigrant myself, I more then welcome anyone else in to the United States. Race has nothing to do with the issue.

A 12 year old girl has a baby..should she keep it? Her, and the Baby's father's choice. Not mine.

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 18? In my country, it already is, and we do just fine.

Should the war in Iraq be called off? Yes.

Assisted suicide is illegal..do you agree? Yes, I agree assisted suicide is illegal. Once again, these questions are poorly written. This should be, "Do you thin assisted suicide should be illegal?", to which I answer, "no".

Do you believe in spanking your children? No.

Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars? I would burn it for five. Who wrote these questions anyway?

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case..what do you think?

She shouldn't have been declared innocent, as temporary insanity doesn't wipe away guilt. However, I do think she should be treated for whatever insanity is plaguing her, because any insanity that causes you to kill five people, is NOT temporary.


Cheated the way from fringe to elite. Clique of stylists, rounded illogic skipping a beat to a dead cert. By lheaving charges and bursting the abscess, with a forked toungue, bloated with courage and spewing self-importance. Drop your sights, aim lower, leave umblemished those with real power.

Would you do meth if it was legalized?
No.

Abortion: for or against?
I am against abortion, for choice.

Would our country fall with a woman president?
Would it fall? I'm not sure.

Do you believe in the death penalty?
I don't agree with it, no.

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
Not really. I don't like drugs.

Do you think its wrong that so many Hispanics are moving to the USA?
I won't be racist, so no comment from Shade.

A 12 year old girl has a baby..should she keep it?
Is it even possible for a twelve year old to have a baby?

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 18?
No. It was explained to me in psychology why the ages are where they are, so no changing in my opinion. Why is alcohol important, anyway?

Should the war in Iraq be called off?
Yes, however safely we can.

Assisted suicide is illegal..do you agree?
No...Mercy killings are legal for other animals, so why not humans? The only difference is we can give our consent. If I were in that situation, I would like to think that there would be people who supported me and didn't have to do it illegally.

Do you believe in spanking your children?
Yes. This physical abuse issue has gotten way out of hand.

Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars?
Sure, why not? I am citizen to no country in my mind. They're just borders written in blood, so why should I stand by them?

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case..what do you think?
Well it depends on the case and the details involved...

Would you do meth if it was legalized?
No.

Abortion: for or against?
Against.

Would our country fall with a woman president?
If it did, it wouldn't be her sex that caused it.

Do you believe in the death penalty?
No. Kind of the whole, you don't kill people who kill people to show people that killing people is wrong...

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
Actually, yes. I think the government could better control it if it were legal, it would control crime, and the government could tax it.

Do you think its wrong that so many Hispanics are moving to the USA?
Umm...if you are asking, if it is wrong that so many individuals are illegally crossing the border into the US, then yes.

A 12 year old girl has a baby..should she keep it?
It depends. It depends on her support system, her financial situation, all of that.

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 18?
No. I don't think it is wise for some high school students to be able to purchase alcohol. If that were the case, you would have to lower it to 14...

Should the war in Iraq be called off?
We've screwed things up in their country and we need to help them back to stability. At the same time, I don't know that our current tactics are appropriate.

Assisted suicide is illegal..do you agree?
Do I agree that it is illegal? It is...I fail to see any ambiguity there.

Do you believe in spanking your children?
Well it's considered child abuse, so it doesn't matter what I believe, now does it?

Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars?
No. I do not believe in the desecration of an American flag. (In order to destroy an old flag, you have to cut the stripes, thus it is no longer a flag when you burn it.) If you want to "express" yourself, find a way that does not destroy the very symbol of your right to do so.

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case..what do you think?
I think someone doesn't quite know about our legal system. Temporary insanity is an affirmative defense. In order to play that card, you basically say you did it, but because you were insane at the time of commission, you shouldn't be held legally responsible for it. If the jury buys the temporary insanity plea, the person is not declared "innocent" (they never are...it's guilty or not guilty), and they certainly aren't released back into society. They go to a mental institution until such time as they are considered healthy enough to re-enter society...and even at that point, they may still be forced to serve the remainder of their prison sentence.

Would you do meth if it was legalized? No. I have too much respect for my body. It's not the healthiest right now, but I won't do drugs that could risk making it unhealthier.

Abortion: for or against? I do not have an ultimate black and white answer for this issue.

Would our country fall with a woman president? Only if she was a shitty president. Shittiness is not gender-exclusive.

Do you believe in the death penalty? No.

Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? I honestly don't care. It's like a lot of other legalized and illegal drugs, and as long as they don't hurt another person while using, I don't care what people do.

Do you think its wrong that so many Hispanics are moving to the USA? No. We did take some of Mexico's land, after all. Only right we let them cross the border and stay.

A 12 year old girl has a baby..should she keep it?
I'm not the girl, her parents, or the baby. I have no say in this matter.

Should the alcohol age be lowered to 18? I don't know as there are some irresponsible 18 year olds, but also some irresponsible 21 year-olds. I think what needs to change before any thought on the drinking age is the cultural view of alcohol that our society holds. Without that view, drinking would not be as big of a deal as it currently is.

Should the war in Iraq be called off?
Too late now. It would be nice to get the troops out of Iraq, but as we've done both good things and damage, we need to stay in order to help Iraq out when they set themselves back up. (However, this would be ideal if they wish us to help. If they don't, then we should work on cleaning up our mess and leaving.)

Assisted suicide is illegal..do you agree?
I can't say. If they are in pain, the obvious answer is yes, but why is it yes for physical pain, but not emotional?

Do you believe in spanking your children?
I don't have children. I don't plan to have to decide this for another ten years-- at least. Do I think spanking works? Not all the time, but I can't give a definitive answer as I'm not a parent and not in control of children.

Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars?
Probably not. The flag may only be a piece of cloth that we sometimes seem to worship, but as it holds a lot of importance, I would not destroy the symbolization unless it was a symbolization for something else, which I would not accept any kind of payment for.

A mother is declared innocent after murdering her 5 children in a temporary insanity case..what do you think?
I'm going to answer what I think this survey is getting at. We Americans, as a society, need to accept the realities of postpartum depression and realize that women act in accordance to emotions and thoughts they normally would not agree with or seriously think about when not dealing with postpartum. It is a real thing, a serious thing, and diet and exercise are not always the answer to dealing with it. With that in mind, I do not think women who are obviously suffering from symptoms of postpartum (or those in labor/right after birth) should be charged as seriously as they have been in past cases.
