OPINIONS
pick a controversial issue (abortion, gay marriage, gun control, etc) and explain your stance on it
GAY MARRIAGE:
honestly, i don't see what's so wrong with it. two people love eachother, and want to spend there lives together. people that can't handle that are simply immature. a person
we're all equal. men, woman, gay, black, white, asian. we all deserve the same rights. so saying gays can't get married, is thinking yourself better, which is stupid.
book bannings/burnings. acceptable? unacceptable? are there ANY books that should be banned or is it all over unacceptable? any book published should stay published. if someone doesn't like a book, then fine they don't like it. they do not have the right to ruin it for others. there are only books unacceptable for certain people.
movies based on books it depends on which movie it is. overall i like the books better because you can see into the character's mind, what they're thinking, how they feel etc. you get to see the point of veiw from each person. in movies, you see the point of beiw from a watcher. books are better, simple as that.
if you were the president (or queen or whatever), what would be the first thing youd change?
gay marriage. legalize it for good.
