mood: ummm....eh..
good day/bad day: it was alright...
So today in Govnt today we had a very BIG discussion on abortion and the death penalty, but thats not all so let me explain...(these are my veiws and opinoins so im sorry if i offend anyone...but this is "my spot" so i guess i have the first amendment right?)
Since Govnt started this year all we've talked about is Liberal and Conservative. We've been talking big issues that are involved in deciding whether your a liberal or conservative...
the main issuse that we've gone over so far are: Censorship, environment protection/big buisenss, perosonal/govnt decision, legalizing weed, gay marriage, Palligame, gay adoption, trans. gendered children, gambling, military, gun control, abortion, and the death penalty.
lots to cover in three days huh...
so i 've been pretty nuetral on alot of that...well not nuetral, but mostly conservative..but not strong about any of it...not enough to argue at least. but the big arguement that i have is...on the liberal side your pro-choice, but against the death penalty...WHY WOULD YOU KILL AN INNOCENT BABY AND LET A KILLER GO!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!? that blows my mind...why would you do that??? that makes absolutly no sense to me!! our teacher tried to argue that there are "rehab" opportunities for the killers/theifs/pedafiles...but only like 8% of them actually want to change and get a second chance. so why then would you still want killers on the loose and sex offenders out there??? obviously im VERY conservative on this issue...cons. believe in pro-life and are for the death penalty. but in alitte bit if-ish about the death penalty...b/c if they dont want to change then i dont see why you let them back out into the world...but if they do want to change, and they actually do, then fine, but they have to be closely watched. but im still very conservative about this. i believe that if you have an abortion then the woman who makes that choice is KILLING her child. no matter whether she was raped or she just got knocked up, i believe she is killing her child. now whether or not she wants to keep it is another story. but if your willing to put yourself in danger of getting some nasty and crazy disease from having all sorts of chemicals put into your body to get rid of the baby, then why not just have the baby and have the reassurance the you will be fine and just give the baby up for adoption. ok...ill get off the soap box, but i just wanted to write that to let you all know where i stand on this issue....b/c clearly its up and coming and getting to be a big deal. anywho...i hope you all now have something to think about and i hope you have an AWESOME day!!! PEACE!!

hey you are very right about this being a big deal. If you think of these issues together logically it would make sense to be pro choice and against the death penalty or the other way around. Because if you believe that abortion is wrong then the death penalty is wrong too. But that is why our opinions come in to play so much. Your beliefs and background and even lineage are what makes you you. So even if you are unsure about your beliefs there is always something that you can go back to. So if you are ever unsure about things your parents would be a great source to help clear up your questions. I know that you wrote this a while ago but this topic does interest me a lot. :)
