6-9: I'll concead to those. 10: Everyone says the bible states gays are evil, bad, whatever, but I've never heard a direct quote. Now the bible was written to reflect the times it was produced, not to mention all the revisions its been through over the centuries. Personally, I dont care where men decide to 'stick it' so long as its private and btwn consenting partners. I do think if gay marriage was allowed all across the country, then gays should pay a higher tax or get less benifts a hetero couple would recieve (men typically make more money then women). Do you honestly think God would cast one of his children's soul to eternal damnation for loving and caring for another of the same sex? even though they live an upmost christian...

the Merits? ok... 1: most immigrants dont have the means to go through the proper channels to be legal citizens, the system is completley clogged as it is. Hawkins wants the bad apples out of the bunch at the expense of of the whole bushel. 2: Our nation is pretty messed up in some areas. Free riders aside, people need assistance. They just get a taste of freebies and don't want change. Why would they? correct the system, don't just take away welfare completely. 3: I actually agree with... 4: current prisoners already 'take care of' the pedo/raper problem themselves. 5: young ppl should be more informed, true...but if you raise voting age, you'd then move on to raising ages of other things (driving, drinking, smoking, etc.) 6-9:...

I thought I was pretty conservative, but DAMN. Hawkins this isn't the 1800s. You are really psychotic on a lot of your beliefs.

duh! In fact, I'm pretty sure they didn't have insurance companies, expecially health insurance, back during the founding of our nation. How can it be iron clad, if "we have to pass the bill to see whats in it"-NP.

too true

If they can get away with this, then next thing people complain about is that they have an age identity disorder. Now we can all live and die young! Lets hope these crackpot perverts and deviants and Adams puts, die first.

Yes, because using the ACLU as a source is soo much more credible than wiki. You were there!? Realy? Well of course everyone else is wrong, who could doubt some faceless name who claims first hand knowledge of the deed? You are an idiot.

Simple solution to prevent indoctrination...send them to a non-liberal arts university! I suggest Texas A&M. More conservatives per capita than you can shake a stick at.

It's the same as the 60's and 70's. These new-age hipster waste of space hate the current system, so they yell and scream and do everything they can to destroy and bring it down. But they never want to build anything new...such a waste these people.

What about Herman Cain?
