    It's unlikely Bush will win the election

    I think many people (about 76% of the registered voters) are disappointed in Bush for the following reasons: 1. I think most people including conservatives (just look at those who are now joining the Libertarian Party) believe it was unnecessary to go to war with Iraq. 2. I think most...

    Don't consume poison, don't get expelled - how's this for college policy?

    Punishment for students who misbehave in school I just heard this from a kid at my church. His school has some kind of anti-misbehavior policy. It works like this: If a group of students collaborates to cause trobule for one or more teachers and or students, then that group is punished in...

    Are video games too violent?

    I know this thread is old, but I didn't I initially didn't want to start a new thread and I wanted to add to this thread to discuss how violent video games make people violent. I honestly do believe that video games that teach any kind of violent action such as, but not necessarily limited to...

    Should sports stars be liable for assault inside the confines of the game?

    If the physical contact was intentional to do harm to another person, yes they should be charged with assault and battery, if it was accidental then no. My advice to players who don't like getting accidentally injured: don't play.

    Why a flat percentage tax is best

    I honestly believe that a flat tax for everyone would be best for the economy. A flat tax is fair because nobody could complain that his/her taxes are too high in proportion to anyone else's taxes. A person who works for a certain number of hours in a year would not get taxxed proportionally...

    Death penalty is a fair & compassionate

    Actually I only won about $200, not the jackpot of tens of millions of dollars.

    Death penalty is a fair & compassionate

    I agree with Gato Solo. But I'm referring to criminals who are actually guilty and plead guilty. I think that not guilty people wrongly sent to prison/jail should be paid $1,000,000 per day they had to spend in prison/jail.

    Death penalty is a fair & compassionate

    I actually think the death penalty is fair and compassionate for two reasons: 1. If people were executed for their crimes by lethal injection, nobody could complain that anybody else's punishment was of an unfair length of prison sentence. 2. Prison has got to be the worst place for...

    Playing the race card.

    If parts of the Republican Party is racist, I'll tell you why African-Americans don't mind joining that party - they don't care. Many of them I've met don't care how racist problems get, they just accept problems as they come like mindless sheep. The party claims to be of morality and there...

    Don't consume poison, don't get expelled - how's this for college policy?

    I heard this on TV. Some colleges are having a policy that requires all their students to refrain from consuming poisonous substances such as alcohol and tobacco (but not possessing since someone could put such poisons in their lockers/vehicles and frame them - they just have to turn them over...

    Monotony of identical signs & bumper stickers

    Why do people, especially U.S. Citizens, get so easily turned on tastelessness? Why are they attracted to the "bandwagon" advertising in that "everyone likes him/her/they/it"? Why do some (but not most) prefer to consume poison like tobacco and alcohol? Why don't they ever think? I mean...

    Sex and the City!!!

    I never watch sex shows such as these. I believe they're full of valueless ideals that contribute nothing positive to society. I'd rather television be used for something more beneficial, adventurous, and educational. I think movies such as Intolerable Crueltly should not be produced because...

    Yu-Gi-Oh!

    What I like about this anime TV show is that it's all about mainly youths friends helping each other out (though there is Yugi's grandpa), the bullied defeating the bullies, good defeating evil, good guys showing mercy to bad guys, some bad guys turning into good guys. The characters speak when...

    Nader joins the chase..

    I can't say Nader would pull votes from Kerry. I don't know what all the voters are thinking. As for exit polls that ask voters if they'd vote for Bush or Kerry had Nader not been in the race, it's possible they might only answer Bush or Kerry in hopes that Bush & Kerry will become more like...

    Nader joins the chase..

    No, a vote for Nader is not a vote for GWB. A vote for Nader is not counted for GWB. A vote for Nader is counted for Nader.

    Why anti-gambling laws must be repealed

    How about this for an idea: People could pay the government massive amounts of money to have built life size copies of their heads like on Mt. Rushmore. The money could be used to fund government programs.

    Nader joins the chase..

    His platform was different than it is now. Last time his platform advocated signing the mine ban treaty and abolition of the death penalty. This time it doesn't mention either of them and I think there are other differences.
