When someone is a Democrat I ask them to give me faults in Obama's presidency, and I ask Republicans what positive things he's done. This is asking someone to be objective for a moment and not follow the party lines completely. |

I mean, the arguments against it are still fairly strong, but as a Federalist I think each state should choose. That means I oppose the Obergefell v. Hodges ruling. If my state (it was legal before Obergefell though) had a vote on legalizing SSM, I would probably vote yes. I just don't really care if gay people marry or not.

I think we are wasting time on this issue on restricting guns, and need to focus on the root causes like improving mental health, ending the drug war. That being said, I'm strongly believe in background checks. It's stupid to think criminals and mentally ill people have the right to bear arms. |

3/24/2016 9:32:30 PM Posted: 1 year ago Really the only thing I can think of is drug laws. I think they need to be loosened, especially for marijuana. This is not a major issue for me, though. I could point to other minor issues but they are mostly because they aren't conservative enough.
