[IAmTheCheapestGamer]

Z. Should the government should prohibit gun ownership by private citizens?
Only those NRA membership mf'ers. Those sob's are nuts.
R. Should Marijuana should be legalized?
Sure. Tax it as much as they currently do other tobacco products and watch the deficit disappear.

Moo. Should the death penalty be abolition?
Hell No. They should make all executions into a public spectacle ala Death Race 2000. That should make a shitton of money from just the NASCAR crowd alone.

2012. Should the government control, regulate, and ban video games, including banning video game sales to teens?
No. The government should not be regulating anything to do with video games, but I do support a government backed program to give the developers of games blamed(and sued by the victims families) for any fatalities the right to go to the defendants home and smack the kid's parent(s) upside the head about a million times.....preferably with a brick.

1492. Should we pull our troops out of Afghanistan?
Yes. After all we don't know where Afghanistan has been and who she's been with. I propose pulling all troops out of every shithole we have them in around the world and putting them on the US/Mexico border with orders to shoot to maim anyone hopping the fence. At least that way it'll be easier to catch them the next 90 times they hop it. /sarcasm


Walla Walla Washington. Should abortion be legal or illegal?
If a chick gets knocked up just from not using a condom with her bf, then it shouldn't be legal. You play with fire, you get burned. But I support it in the event of a rape.


576. Should stem cell research be legal?
Shit yeah. If it'll lead to some cures for diseases that're cash cows now for the pharmaceutical industry, then hell yeah.

963. Should criminals who sexually assault and/or rape children under the age of 13 be killed, castrated, chemically castrated, or simply imprisoned and registered as a sex offender?
I believe that criminals who rape kids should be placed in the same ward as lifers, lifers with lotsa diseases from themselves having been raped for years in jail and with a thing for 'sharing'.

852. Should the police get money directly from tickets or should ticket money be put in with other government spending?
All of the money from tickets should be spent on public safety.

986. Should the police have a monthly/weekly quota of tickets that they must meet?
Hell no.

96A. Should we stop Iran's nuclear weapons program?
No. We should keep our noses out of other countries' business.

41B. Should we liberate North Korea and install a peaceful democratic government?
Liberate N. Korea? You mean like we liberated Afghanistan and Iraq and both are likely to end up once again being US hating hellholes within 10 years? No thanks.

F. Should the government give money to failing businesses in order to keep them from going bankrupt?
No. Their businesses are failing for a reason. Whether it's through mismanagement or greed at the top(aka huge CEO bonuses). Let them go under and have the fed regulators or whoever step in to assure the CEO's and others in power don't loot what's left on the way out and leave the little people grasping for the paltry leftovers.

Second one. Definitely second one.

698B. Should New York City become it's own state, an independent country, or remain part of New York?
New Yawk should be seperated from the whole of the US and floated out to sea, then sunk. It'd make a great tourist attraction. Although shit floats, so chances are the whole of NYC would just bob back up to the surface. No offense meant to NYC CAG's, just being sarcastic here.

476. Should the United States create a North American Union with Canada? If so should we allow Mexico to join?
LOL Oh hell no.

658. Should the government increase it's power to enforce internet laws and put a stop to internet crimes?
Hell no. I love hearing bout how someone sent their life savings to someone in Nigeria because they're a dumbass hoping for some get rich quick scheme. Just like Don Lapre eventually the scam is figured out and even the dumbest dumb s get it.


867. Should the government shutdown 4chan, just /b/, or neither?
Neither. It's funny reading about them ragging on someone over whatever.

P. Should 13 year olds be given universal suffrage?
Suffrage? I suffrage enough being bothered by the lil bastards. I don't want them being able to vote until they're 18 and stupid, although stupid is sometimes forever(see: the Republican party).

1. Should the drinking age be lowered to atleast 18?
It is in some states. You wanna drink at 18, move there. As for me I don't drink by choice. Once I turned 21 it wasn't any fun being able to get sloshed legally. There's something about the thrill of being illegally served and drinking underage. That rush is gone once you're legal age.

23. Should church and state remain separate?
Actually, I'd like it if the church were forced to pay taxes and not always scream 'tax free' at every chance they get.

XXX. Should we allow a mosque to be built next to Ground Zero?
Sure. Why not?

B. Should the government offer free healthcare?

Q. Should the government offer free college/university education?
No. Not every dumbass needs/wants to go to college.

The political system in this country is a sham. The Republican Party? The Democratic Party? I wanna vote for someone in the Whig party.

K. Should public schools bring back the ability to beat their students and force them to wear school uniforms?
yeah. Especially if the girls gotta wear the same shit as Catholic school girls. As for the beating, you know the old saying: "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but whips and chains excite me"

G. Should we allow weapons in space?
Sure. I'm still waiting for my in' affordable jetpack and/or flying car. Cmon NASA, hurry up.

One way trip? Oh hell no.

O. Should teenagers (from 13 to 19) be given the same rights and privileges as adults?
Same rights and privileges? Such as?

W. Should we allow private military contractors to continue to exist?
Sure. So long as the countries they're providing services in(aka Iraq, Afghanistan, etc) are the ones footing the bill and NOT the US.

4. Should the government and military work to help stop and prevent genocides, civil wars, and other atrocities happening around the world, such as in Africa?
no. Let the rest of the world solve their own problems. If no one else steps in to help, oh in' well.

007. Should research into cloning be conducted?
Sure. I've always wanted to be twice as annoying as I am now.

Agent M. Should we close the Guantanamo Bay prison?
Yes.

999. Should Guantanamo Bay become a US state?
Hell no.

---. Should the United States become imperialist again, but this time we make the places we conquer become permanent US states?
You mean we might conquer Mexico and make that a permanent part of the US? That would probably solve the illegal problem better than a wall, though then they'd be wanting to hop the border into Canada since the wages(in this area anyway) suck.

O0. Should the world unite under a democratic world government that is just like the United States, but governs the entire world?
Hell no. Democracy is a system that's broken and corrupt(as you can see here in the US.
