Abortion is not right. I understand that some people want to get rid of a child because they were raped, didn't use protection, or the mother's life is in danger. But in the last case, get a C - section. Yes it will leave scars and the mother will never have a normal birth again but the child will live and can be put up for adoption. The same thing goes for rape cases and unplanned pregnancies. The child can be put up for adoption and give a child to a couple that can't conceive.

I think a big part of this topic stems around when the abortion happens.  I believe that after a certain point in a pregnancy, abortion should no longer be an option.  But to just outright ban it and say it is horrible makes no sense.  
Adoption doesn't always work out well for kids. Many stay in homes until they are 18 and then get sent out on their own having a terrible start to life.  Sometimes adoption works out fantastic, but you can't only look at those cases.
Also forcing a woman to carry a baby conceived via rape is the so much more atrocious than allowing her to terminate the abortion early.  Same goes for young girls who have made mistakes.
Should undocumented people be entitled to healthcare?
Anonymous No 
I am a contributing citizen and i don't get free medical care. I have to pay for it. I have to pay a lot for it. 
There is no reason undocumented people who are here should get better healthcare than the citizens of the country.
Should Americans transition into vegetarianism to combat climate change?
jeremyh No 
If this was an active choice by people then yes it is fine, but to try and make this a law is a terrible idea that would not work.  I am not sure which way you are implying, but any sort of law on this would be tossed out before the paper came out of the printer.
Should the Federal Minimum Wage Be Increased?
jeremyh Cons 
I don't believe minimum wage increases are the correct way to go about the pay inequality in the US.  If you increase the minimum wage, companies are just going to increase their prices on everything so they can maintain their same profit levels.
I believe a better solution would be to have a max pay differential for companies. Example:  For large companies, the highest paid employee's pay cannot be more than 100 times what the lowest paid employee in the company makes.  This would essentially eliminate the massive pay discrepancies we see in the US today.  This would have to include total compensation like stock options, bonuses, profit sharing, etc from the highest paid person.
No, weapons like the one pictured were once banned, and should be again. They are weapons for war, maybe even for SWAT teams, but not useful for hunting or home defense.

What people fail to understand, banning rifles that look opposing, is ridiculous. There is no such thing as an ASSAULT weapon. If I hit someone over the head with a sock full of pennies, that sock becomes an assault sock. It isn't a tool problem, it is a human problem. And the best way to protect yourself from the human problem, is to have better tools than the other guy.
