Do you support the direction of supporting polygamy or otherwise, and think all of it will be pushed to normalcy and that itself is a good thing?

@SleepingSilence

I'm for polyamorus relationships being legally recognized yes. I'd frankly rather we abolished marriage as a civil institution all together and handled all the legal rights we currently assign to marriage by a civil union.

On the subject of gun control it seems like the Senior Bush signed that ban that doesn't really ban FN-FALs so its not like Republicans have never done any gun regulation.

It is a little hard to see how a regulation which would actually help would ever be considered constitutional. A system like Australia uses for example would probably have a positive effect but it would almost certainly be eviscerated by the courts (even if angels came down from heaven and forced congress, the senate and the president to sign off on it - presumably at gun point).

To claim they were for gay marriage so they can continue with the bigoted thing they were going to say anyway :P

@POOHEAD189

Ah I see that would fall more under moral licensing. What I meant is that in the future people who fought against gay marriage will claim they were always for it (as it becomes less socially acceptable to express homophobia).

Is gay marriage a victory in my opinion? Absolutely!

I feel like that's the political equivalent of being like "I'm not racist, but..."

@POOHEAD189

How do you mean?

Everyone was always in favor of gay marriage now that it is politically necessary to have been so. Eventually it will be the same with trans people and poly marriage.

Most people who take opiates do so responsibly ergo there should be zero regulations on there sale and distribution. Or whatever other simile you want to dream up.

It would be refreshing to see gun advocates just admit that they feel that masturbating to their firearm fetish is worth the occasional pile of dead children. Own it peeps.

So, let's say we do get rid of guns, just hypothetically. We ban guns, we crush them all into dust, and they're gone.

@Andrew Blade

I'm for it!

So there are less FN-FAL's in circulation because there are legislative restrictions on them? Good to know. Also a grenade launcher is one point *boggle*
