I share views from both major parties.
Officially I’m a Democrat, but I do not vote party-line.
I have a mind of my own.

WAR
-I’m against the Iraq War.
-30,000 troop surge in Afghanistan was the right thing to do.

WELFARE
-Recipients should be required to pass drug tests!
-Increase public assistance to those who are in legitimate need
-Don’t give the homeless money………..Give them homes.

I’M PRO-LIFE
-Pro-Patriot Act
-Pro-Gun control
-Pro-stem cell reserach
-Use death penalty less often.
-Restrict & Ban abortions (especially partial-birth abortions)
-Life begins at conception

CIVIL RIGHTS
-Let gays marry, "To each his own."
-Civil Unions demonstrate "separate but equal" which is unconstitutional.
-AGAINST Affirmative Action: Don’t make hiring decisions based on whether they are minorities.

TAX REFORM
-Tax Churches and raise the standards for a service to be considered "non-profit" tax-exempt.
-Replace irs with national sales tax
-Use alternative revenue sources to replace taxes; higher fines on criminals & traffic violations
-Gear tax cuts towards the middle class, I pretty much don’t give a crap what the rich have to pay in taxes

RESTRICT SMOKING
-Raise sales tax on cigarrettes and using that money to fight cancer
-Ban smoking in public places
-Allow hospitals to have a policy where they don’t hire smokers

ECONOMY
-Against social security: Let people manage their own money. SS should be voluntary to pay into.
-Maintain a mixed economy; part capitalist part socialist
-Enforce mandatory paid vacations like they do in Europe
-My position on Universal Healthcare: We need to come up with a better way to pay for it.
-Bush medicare bill was a mistake.
-I believe the bailout was necessary. And look on the bright side; that bailout wasn’t a gift; it was a loan. They owe us that money back.
But we’ve already bailed them out once…..If they ask for another, the answer is NO.
FREE TRADE
-Allow it, it may lose facotry jobs but it gives us lower prices. And the most important jobs are not the labor-factory ones.

Reading a article about a pastoor in Kentucky who told his congregation to bring gun to the church to promote safe gun use. heres the article

A pastor in the US state of Kentucky told his flock to bring handguns to church in what he said was an effort to promote safe gun ownership.
Pastor Ken Pagano told parishioners to bring their unloaded guns to New Bethel Church in Louisville for a service celebrating the right to bear arms.
He said he acted after church members voiced fears the Obama administration could tighten gun control laws. When the service began, some 200 people were present, AP news agency said.
"We are wanting to send a message that there are legal, civil, intelligent and law-abiding citizens who also own guns," Mr Pagano told the congregation.
"If it were not for a deep-seated belief in the right to bear arms, this country would not be here today," he said. Ken Pagano, pastor of New Bethel Church in Louisville, Kentucky
The pastor also held a handgun raffle, as well as providing information on gun safety.
"I wish more churches did this, I wish more people did this," the Louisville Courier-Journal quoted one attendee, Doreen Rogers, as saying.
"For some reason, most people think that carrying guns is sinful. It’s not. I think my life is worth protecting."
About 10 members of a private local militia also attended, the Courier-Journal said.
A coalition of religious groups and campaigners held a rival gun-free event at the same time on the other side of Louisville.
"The idea of wearing guns to churches or any sacred space I think many people find deeply troubling," organiser Terry Taylor told AP.
In the US, the right to bear arms is enshrined in the Second Amendment of the US Constitution.
There are thought to be more than 200 million firearms in private hands.
But some gun owners fear that the new administration in the White House could try to challenge or amend some gun ownership laws.
Critics of the laws, meanwhile, link high levels of gun crime with high levels of gun ownership.

does anyone else think gun ownership laws needs to be changed or tightened in the US, do you think the constitution needs to be changed on this matter well since it was written 300 years ago and there was no police or army which there is now?

It seems to be no secret anymore that the CIA controls the world traffic in drugs, guns, pornography and prostitution. The CIA along with the FBI have been under investigation for running and protecting pedophile acts known as SRA: Satanic Ritual Abuse. How did we end up letting the 1% of sadistic jerks in the world get all the money and horde all the power?

Despite the fact that concealed carry laws have lowered violent crimes in every state they have been enacted in and hundreds of thousands of Americans use their guns to stop crimes every year Liberals want to take them away, WHY??

"The U.S. Supreme Court says Americans have an individual right to keep and bear arms. The EPA says the bullets for those guns may be banned as an environmental hazard."

"The Environmental Protection Agency of Lisa Jackson is seriously considering a petition by the Center for Biological Diversity, a leading anti-hunting group, to ban all traditional lead ammunition under the Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA) of 1976."

"If the EPA approves the petition, the result will be a ban on all ammunition containing lead-core components. Bullets made of material other than lead are often considered armor-piercing by law and are banned. So this amounts to gun control by stealth."

"There is no scientific basis for restricting lead ammunition on the basis of protecting the health of humans or wildlife."

HR45 the new proposed house bill called "Blair holt licensing and registration act of 2009" will require any hand gun owners and self-loading (guns with a magazine) rifles to register with the Attorney General, give fingerprints, show drivers license or state ID, and update all your address information, and changes. Also requires you to report any sale of a firearm, private or public. Failure to update any address information will be punishable by a year in jail, and the loss of your right to ever own a gun. It also gives them the authority to come into your home and see how and where your guns are kept. This bill is sponsored by Bobby Rush, who is a former domestic terrorist and member of the Black Panthers. Also from Chicago and an acquaintance of B. Obama.
I don’t know about you, but this makes me very uneasy. I had heard that Obama wants to control gun ownership, guess so…
