Cartoon Me
And so, now that I have basically given you an overview of what is to come, I shall begin my thesis. In class, we are currently working on our argument essay. With this essay, we are to first select a social issue that is now being faced by our society. Then we must choose a side and either defend or attack that issue. Well the first thing Prof. Tasha Baby does, is put up a list of topics we cannot discuss in our essay. Well here is where I will grab a handful, maybe two, of these controversial issues and share my views on them. Whether you agree or not is fine by me, you're entitled to be a wrong just like everyone else.
Chibi Me
These are in alphabetical order.
Abortion - Nay
I'm against abortion in every sense of the word, either because of my religion, my morality, and simple logic. Church says abortion is the killing of a life and I wholeheartedly agree. A baby's heart starts beating at 18 days since conception, and for anyone doing any period math, you will know that that is only 4 days after you are late for your period. People who are for abortion, are not really checking themselves everytime they get down for a little bump and grind, so it is safe to assume that most, if not all abortions are done after the fact. So there's no going around the fact that the baby is alive and you are killing a human life. "A baby can't fend for him/herself and can't do anything about it." Oh okay, well if that's your state of mind, you might as well get rid of all the old, decrepit, lame, mentally challenged, people who don't contribute anything to life. "It's the woman's choice." Yet again, *buzzer sound* then you're saying that any ol' person can off someone whenever they are an inconvenience to themselves. Now, I know abortion is not going to go completely out of the window, so I'm more than happy to compromise and lower the deaths as much as possible. I think abortion should only be legal if, and only if, 1) One of the lives is in mortal jeaporday. 2) Incest or rape is involved. 3) Parental notification for anyone that is underage. And each case would be investigated before coming across a decision.
Adoption - Yay
I'm guessing this issue is for gay couples to adopt? Look I have no problem with Homosexuals adopting. I mean, if they qualify and are well suited to adopt a child be my guest.
Affirmative Action - Nay
I have no idea why this survived the last Supreme Court ruling of UCLA v. Bakke. I mean this law has been used and abused worse than Dobby's old clothes. I understand that this was to better minorities in society, but with the aforementioned case it should have been squashed. I mean, if the Legislative Branch really wanted to help improve blacks role in society then they should have clearly stated that when writing up this law. Now, even with that, it can be clearly determined that now in today's society that this law serves no purpose whatsoever, because now everyone has just as many opportunities to improve themselves in society as the person next to you.
Alcohol - Nay
I am not for lowering the drinking age. I know, I know, "You can go die for your country but you can't drink." Please that excuse has been more played out than Sexy Back - Justin Timberlake. People are stupid, not all but a hell of a lot, and they do overindulge in this stimulant, and that has the possibility of endangering others' lives. I'm not speaking out of my ass when I say that if this was lowered, there will exponentially be more alcohol related deaths. In the short run the drinking age line had with 18 year olds, the number soared with numerous cases of alcohol related deaths, beit posion, emotionally charged acts, or reckless endangerment with DUI. This is a no-no, the only way I would possibly agree to lowering the drinking age is if automobile corporations were now instructed to add a new safety feature, the breathalizer, to every car they make. That before the car even starts the driver must breathe into it to allow the driver to start the ignition. That would literally stop all DUIs out there. For the idiots who drink themselves to death, hey man you dug your own grave. Also with that said, I think the intoxication level is ridiculous. It's like "Oh, having some benadryl... Whoa I'm drunk." Please.. and this little vendetta cops have with drunk drivers, and waiting outside clubs and all this crap. I mean I understand because they want to stop all the alchy deaths but comeon.
Animal Experimentation - Yay
Ok tree huggers and animal lovers, get out of my way, because if these animal experimentations didn't happen then you can safely say that our life expectancy would be shot, and a shit load of diseases or illnesses out there would still be running rampid. Of course I agree that stuff done in an abusive manner is wrong. And that, as they say, is that.
Capital Punishment - Yay
Yes with a capital 'Y'. "Bro Dantes, you're such a hypocrite. You want innocent babies alives but fuck the people that are convicted by a jury that they are dousches and deserve to rot in hell!" FUCK YEAH! These low-lives deserved to be hung in the middle of a public square for everyone to see them die a very slow and dishonourable death, so that they know, that's how they are going to go if they fuck with the law. We pay too much money for these assholes to live in prison where they breathe the same air as me. Save your money and let them die with a short drop and a sudden stop. Oh and also, the automatic appeal should not happen, only a retrial if there is for a moment's doubt that they are guilty.
Censorship - Yay
I don't want to have kids and have them watch TV where people are bumping uglies on every channel. Nor do I want them to listen to a whole mess of crappy rappers out there cursing and talking about fUckIng sUm hOE while rolling on ex. If you wanna hear that shit buy XM radio and Direct TV.
Cloning - Nay
What a bad idea from the beginning. I mean how bad is it going to be morally, religiously, and economically. I mean what fool is going to ask for a $10,000+ person at the corner shop. And think about all the sick twisted people who do want that, and just use the clones for their own sexual and distorted fantasies.
Creation v Evolution - Yay
I mean if you're going to tell a story you might as well tell both sides of the coin. Or atleast teach why one idea is wrong and why the other idea is right or w/e. I think having the ten commandments or the quaran in a classroom also falls under this category somewhat, and I think it should be allowed. Especially in like govt. classes and such.
Drugs - ???
I mean I don't care if they legalize pot, but right now it aint the law so I don't want it.
Euthanasia - Nay
It's assisted suicide. Please, if a person is in a coma and can't get better, you think that person would tell you to kill him or not. If you want the person to die to ease your wallet or your burdened minds, pull the feeding or air tube. You're just letting the person trying to survive on his/her own.
Feminism - ???
Girl you already can vote and do everything else we can what else do you want? Oh what's that? Equal wages... THAT'S A CIVIL ISSUE! GET OFF MY TV! ... Oh and I don't care either or for women in the military.
Flag Burning - Nay
You should be deported or shot on the spot if you do this crap. Also, if you sit or talk during the Pledge of Allegiance, then get the fuck out, or HOPE that I don't see you. That is the most disrespectful shit anyone can ever do, besides mock my religion. I would tear you a new asshole if I saw you doing that. You stand up and stay quiet out of respect, even if you don't believe in "One Nation Under God".
Gambling - Yay
Why should it only be the Indians who have all the fun. Let everyone end up being broke and dancing in the streets for money.
Genetic Engineering - Nay
If it's for cosmetic purposes then no. If its to save the life of the baby then yes.
Global Warming - Nay
When I asked my mom about what she thought she replied, "I like it. I mean it rains a lot less here ever since that BS came out." And I agree with her 100% There's not enough conlusive scientific facts that humans are the cause for global warming. It could be the Earth evolving like it always does.
Guns - Nay
Give everyone a gun.
Health Care - Nay
Yeah socialized medicine would be great on paper and seems to be working out decently enough in like Sweden, but lemme ask you this. Where do they go when they need a very intricate surgery or treatment? Oh that's right, the US. Wanna know why? Because if we socialized medicine, what do doctors have to work for? Why would they care? Humans are strive to supercede the other, and thus why things are the way they are. If health care was socialized, why would the doctors bother to try, if all they get is the same shit with anyone else.
Immigration - Nay
Look here is my plan. Built up the wall, tighten borders, and keep everyone that's already here. Anyone else that comes in gets sent back home. Oh and the wet foot dry foot, no longer. It's favouritism to Cubans. Oh, and if you send more than a certain amount of money back home then you are kicked out aswell. Why are you sending money to a place where the economy will not flourish because of it. And if you want to know why I'm like this, just look at all the other countries' immigration policy,
Internet Privacy - Nay
Man, if shits out on the web, then its out there. You fucked up somewhere.
Pornography - Yay
Hell, its a booming industry. Nothing wrong with that. And it's been known to save marriages and help people out of depression. One problem I have is all the sodomy, bestiality, and child pornography or child-like roleplaying. I mean this just spurs on freaks everywhere and fucks with people's minds. Especially the already disturbed minds. And if you don't believe me about the sodomy and nasty shit out there, go watch 2 girls 1 cup. WARNING:: NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART LIKE SERIOUSLY, ONLY WATCH IT IF YOU ARE WILLING TO PUT YOURSELF THROUGH THAT.
Sex Education - Yay
Should be made manditory for every freshmen class, either in college or high school.
Smoking - Nay
I think it's utterly ridiculous that all laws now in effect, do not allow you to smoke anywhere on dryland!
Steroids - Yay
Choose your own poison. I mean yes steroids have a chance of disrupting your emotional track and mindset, but hey so can any other vice such as alcohol and the like. Let steroid use be at a certain level, and if athletes want to use them, LET THEM. I get my kicks when I see former high school slackers beating the crap out of each other.
Torture - Yay
Big time YAY! Torture should be implemented in all terror, murder, and treason related charges. For the protection and safety of our country. And it should not be limited to interrogation alone, also for punishment.
War on Terror - Yay
If you buy a car. Supe it up. Get a new engine, rims, tints, lights, the whole works. And spend all this money on it, and you decide you just don't like it, or its not what you thought it was going to be, are you really going to sell that car? Not unless you're a rich liberal idiot living off Daddy's payroll. The whole discussion whether it was right or not to go in is over now. We're in already, and if we decide to pull out now it will show weakness and instability within our own country. With that it shows division and indecisiveness. That will be a real moral downer on everyone and open up our country to even more acts of terrorism. Not only that, the war on terror is in a sense succeeding, because when was the last terrorist act committed other than in the Middle East? Takes a while to think about it, huh? Well that's because the total terrorist acts ACROSS THE WORLD has dropped substantially, and not only that, it's all located in essentially one area, instead of before where it was around the world. Now whether we go into Iran or not.....

Ok, so I took the time to read your blog that you put so much thought into and I was very entertained. As I told you in class I don't like to get into discussions about these kinds of issues with my students, and I would have told you after the semester is over we can sit down and have a really good discussion, but, since you are in my 1102 next year, I guess you will have to wait until then! :) But seriously, you were right, we see eye to eye on quiet a few issues, but not all. I guess you will have to wait and see which ones. And it'll be cool to see who many of your peers decide to engage in this discussion with you.
