Gun Control Laws: Democrats are generally known for their push for stricter gun control laws. They demand that a background check should be conducted for the person who is looking to buy a gun. They do not want concealed weapons to be legal, and they get all willy nilly and try to say "We told you so" whenever there is a shooting somewhere. Republicans are more leniant towards these laws and feel that every citizen has "the right to bare arms" as it is stated in the constitution. I stand with my fellow Republicans in saying that we do have the right to bare arms and should legally be able to own a whole arsenal if we so choose. Democrats call for background checks which i suppose is alright, but when you think about it, a gun is only one means of killing someone. If somebody is intent on murder, a gun is not their only option. It's just an easier one. That sleezeball is still going to try to commit that murder whether he has a firearm or not.Flag Burning: Democrats once again take to the stupid side of the argument in saying that burning our American Flag should be legal. Republicans say that this should be illegal. I wholeheartedly agree with Rebpublicans. Whenever I hear the national anthem and look at Our Flag, I am filled with deep, deep respect for those who fought, died, and worked so hard to establish and keep this country alive, and I am also fill with absolute pride for being an American. Why would you burn the symbol of not only our freedom, but the symbol for people all over the world? To me, that is a slap in the face to all who came before us.Affirmative Action: Affirmative Action is a law that forces a company or business to hire a black (or other ethnic race) or a woman even if there is a better qualified and clearly better candidate who is white. Democrats encourage Affirmative Action, not quite so much as before, but still pretty strongly. Republicans and myself believe (actually we know) that the time for Affirmative Action has long since passed. Many unqualified and inexperienced African Americans easily get jobs that they are either not ready for, or incappable of handling all because of Affirmative Action. This is a case of reverse discrimination and for some reason law makers think that it should be legal. I know full well that there are many skilled and hard working, ethical black workers out there, but there are still those who use Affirmative Action as a crutch to get whatever job they want without needing to ever really qualify. This does not only apply to the work-force either. Some colleges use Affirmative Action to just accept African Americans free of charge. To me, Affirmative action is one of the key factors that keep actual racism alive. I hate racism and don't try not to even label someone by their color or ethnicity. I don't get why there is so much strife between PEOPLE, HUMAN BEINGS, just because we are not exactly alike. I mean, come on! I sometimes enjoy a race joke, but it doesn't mean that I go and harrass other ethnic groups, no way! I say we ban Affirmative Action and get on with our lives.
