I know that we could take a small group of die hard conservatives and put them in a room with die hard liberals, and talk about crime. There would be a lot of common ground, because we would ALL agree on a lot of things. Is murder bad, rape, violence in general, theft, etc? Of course! The problem is when you start getting beyond those important issues. At some point, no matter what, folks will not agree on a lot of things --like the pot issue, like the gun issue. Some folks want them, other folks dont. Then what you have is one group always being forced into something they dont believe in, at gun point. This nation had a motto once that was even printed on our money. It said "live and let live". So basically, if you dont want to smoke pot, dont, but dont go out of your way to get the government to force others to not smoke it and threaten them with jail and even death over it. Guns, same thing. You dont like them, dont own one but stop trying to force your will on others.
Everyone wants to force their will on others anymore. Nobody, especially liberals want to live and let live. It's a huge problem. Any laws beyond the ones we all agree on will always cause problems so we have to be VERY careful on what they are and the process needs to be way more transparent. Lobbiest write the bills now. Politicians dont even read them anymore, they just sign them so they can cash their check. Its NOT working. Time for major change. Time for a move towards real freedom and liberty.
