OK. Here it is. Got a beef with a world leader? Feel your President let you down? Think Cuba sells their cigars too cheaply or expensively, or shouldn't at all? Post it here. BTW. Board rules still apply. You can discuss ans debate subjects. Fighting is not allowed. Everyone has equal rights and an equal say here...

I think women should walk around nude all the time. On second thought. Only a chosen few. Deb, Amanda. Take them off. Well, it's still too cold out to be nude outside. So, you know where to take them off

I'm working on a theory about the selling of the two ports to the UAE. I'm almost finished. I'll share when it is done.

O.K. kids, here is my theory.
George wants the U.A.E to by the two British ports that are forsale in the U.S. so he can have lets say a more dominant stand in the middle east. We are already allies with them so now George can say something along the lines of "I scratched your back, now you scratch mine". If we are able to send troops(yes more) there, Iran will be totally surrounded by the U.S. and our allies. We have troops in Iraq, some in Afghanistan, Kuwait is our allie and George just made a "trip" to Pakistan & India which also border Iran. So if Iran does go forward with it's nuclear program George will blast them too. If you have a map, globe or anything look at the countries and see how Iran is surrounded.

Political issues that frustrate me: -Religious issues -Gay marriage -Abortion the classics. I hate it when people blend religion with politics. I know it often seems unavoidable, but in the gay of gay marriage, the church doesn't have to perform it; a judge can. I'm tot agree sucks, anyway i have no interest on politc FallenAngel

I leave politics up to my dad. I have my own opinions, but I'd rather keep them to myself because everyone always gives me shit for being Republican....so I'll let my dad be the politics guy in the fam. I am sure Dan remembers when he was President of the Californian Repulican Commitee. I was not born yet though....

So, let's take a topic. I choose abortion.
Do I definitely think that abortion is overused by many men and women (yes, I said men, too) as a means to birth control? Yes.
Do I think it should be banned? No.
I think abortion is a very poor form of birth control. Seriously, if you're adult enough to fuck, then you are adult enough to deal with the consequences of your sexual activity. That's why condoms and birth control were created. If you choose not to use either of those methods and you don't get off his dick before he climaxes or you don't pull out before you climax, then that's your problem. If you don't want the child, then you can put the child up for adoption. There are many different groups of people that are unable to conceive children (i.e. infertile couples, gay men, lesbians, single parents). It is wrong to think that using abortion like this doesn't make you a killer.
On the other hand, I believe that it is an appropriate method of birth control for certain circumstances. If you are raped, then I think you should have abortion as an option. Think about it. If you were raped, would you want to give birth to the child of your (possibly brutally) violent attacker? I wouldn't want to have some rapist's love child. I also think that abortion is acceptable if the mother's life is at risk. True, I understand that C-sections are available, but in the case of an ectopic (I think that's the right word) pregnancy it should be widely available. Even a C-section may be too harsh on a woman's body if that is the only way she can give birth.
Ideas?

Interesting topic Mr. rockstars.
I myself am against abortion. I think it is wrong.
Do I have the right to say someone shouldn’t have one? No I don’t.
Will it ever be fully overturned? Again, no I don’t think so.
Is it overused? Yes. 4400 abortions per day in the US alone is overused.
Is adoption the answer? No
Could adoption ever be the answer? Yes. I believe in todays world you have to look at the whole picture. Straights and Gays would stand in lines for hours to get the chance at having a baby.
I am a straight man that is unable to have a child (so far). We will adopt but first we have to see if we are able to have one for ourselves. I am 36 and my wife is now 31. The clock is ticking.
Should gays and lesbians be allowed to adopt? Yes! Many people (idiots) think that because someone is gay there is something wrong with them. They think they would abuse a child.
Is that true? No! There are abusers on both sides of the fence. The act of sexual abuse is not a gay or straight issue. It is a human issue. A POWER issue. It is all about the power it gives someone. It has been done by both straights and gays.
The other thing that would need to be fixed with the adoption process would be to get rid of the lawyer costs by giving tax breaks to those that adopt in the US. (I say the US only because that is where I am from so don’t think I am being all patriotic Temper.)
If they fixed these issues alone then there would little need for abortions.

^^What about in the case of rape or if the life of the mother would be in danger?
I'm sure many women would risk having a child even if they knew it could kill them, though. I probably would if I were a woman.

I probably would if I were a woman. Well I already said that none of this is up to me. I don't condone or condem......... That being said.................... The whole rape and dieing issue is up to the one raped or is going to die. I will say this. I believe the father of the baby should have some say as to what should happen. If he is able to pay child support for the child (and mother) or he is able to take care of that child it would be better for him to take care of it than for it to die. As of this post the father has no say. The reason I bring this up is because if Michele were to get pregnant and she didnt want it, she could get an abortion without me even knowing about it. I want a child and if that is my only chance to have one, I would like to have a say so. She had the choice to not have sex. I should have the choice to say I want my child.

abortion... personally, I would never condone such a procedure, but that is my opinion, and I do not feel that everyone should be affected by what I think. So I guess they shouldn't ban them, eventhough I would not be against banning them....
