Controversial Topics

The following are my opinions, beliefs and what have you, regarding today's controversial topics. They are supposedly controversial in the U.S., anyway. I'm not looking for an argument, nor am I attempting to persuade anyone to think the way I do on these subjects. I've learned long ago that spending too much time convincing anyone of anything is usually futile, tiresome and a waste of my time. I just felt like throwing these convictions out there. If you wish to comment, regarding whether you agree, disagree or haven't decided yet on all or any of these topics, feel free. However, try not to get too crazy or worked up about any of them. I don't want anyone to push themselves into a heart attack or brain hemorrhage. Or... Well... Maybe I do. You'll never know. Heh heh.

Also: A lot of people think there is a gray area with some of these issues. I happen not to feel that way.

Blah. Blah. Blah. Here ya go!

Gun Control- People have an issue with this because they believe it is dangerous for people to keep a gun inside their house. It is dangerous, only, if you don't keep your gun in a secure place. For the most part, people keep their guns locked up. The few who don't keep their guns secured safely and, as a result, a death or accident occurs, should be punished. So... I emphatically disagree with those who oppose the rights and free will of citizens owning guns and having them in their homes. This is another issue to me that seems pretty simple and straightforward. I know there are some of you out there in the Unreal World who would like to make this a gray area type of subject but it's not. Sorry. Well, actually, I'm not. Heh heh. Everyone has the right to protect themselves. End of story.

Abortion- It's murder. What's worse is that abortion is the killing of an innocent life. If the baby is unwanted, give the baby to an adoption agency so it may be allowed to live. If the woman of the baby is raped, the baby should still be allowed to live a full a life. It is not the baby's fault that it's mother was attacked by a worthless piece of human shit. The only gray area, albeit, a touch of gray in this issue, is if there is a situation where the baby, for certain, is endangering the mother's life. In my opinion, the mother should be the one to survive. But, overall, I believe abortion to be wrong. And this statement is coming from someone who isn't that crazy, in general, about kids or people. Kind of ironic, aye?

War On Drugs- It hasn't worked. It will never work. It is a pointless endeavor on the part of our government. Making drugs illegal only benefits the Mafia and drug dealers, monetarily. If we were, for instance, to tax cannabis, like we do cigarettes, we would be able to remove a lot of this country's national debt and we could use that revenue for many things that the states of this country needs. Such as the reparation of roads, bridges and schools. I'd also like to point out the obvious... Marijuana is not dangerous. Alcohol, which is legal, on the other hand, can be very dangerous. Hard drugs, such as heroin and crack, I agree, are incredibly threatening to one's health but it should be left to you whether you do something stupid to yourself or no not. It's your life.

The Death Penalty- I'm all for ending the life of a serial killer or child abuser/rapist. These are not innocent people and are deserving of death. I will cheerfully pull the lever for the electric chair or the trigger of a gun if I were asked to do so in order to end a guilty life, while showing absolutely no remorse as I do so.

Religion- Is bullshit. All organized religion is. People have used religion as an excuse to create war. Religion is a man-made creation, designed to push people into acting against rational behaviour.

God- Yes, I believe in a higher being or beings that created the Universe. Call Him, Her or It whatever you want. If the name, God, works for you, so be it. I don't have proof of His or Hers or It's existence. I only have my own particular faith and feelings to go by concerning "God". I believe in an afterlife, too. All of those folks who have had Near Death Experiences can't be wrong. I base my belief in some personal experiences I've had in the past, as well. Long stories.

Illegal Immigration- The economic and social consequences of illegal immigration are staggering. Illegal aliens have cost billions of taxpayer-funded dollars for medical services. Illegal Immigration is a net drain on the economy; corporate interests reap the benefits of cheap labor, while taxpayers pay the infrastructural cost. If the person wishing to immigrate here has a green card and is honestly striving to become a citizen of this great land of greed, vanity and insanity, well, then, I scream, "Welcome to The Psycho Carnival, fuckers!"

For all those wishing to engage me in some insane argument about any of this, please, don't bother. I have better things to do with my time than get into a heated dispute... especially on the Internet. Instead, pop open a beer, put up your feet, don't take yourself or life too seriously and watch this hilarious video. Aloha.

Well you must know I agree with almost all of this. You rock my world, baby. MUAH!

I love you man, I'm on valium now too! Awesome post makes me wanna shite.

Hi Kelly,
Basically, I agree with what you have listed here. So, I will just add observations to some of your points.
Gun control. Okay fair enough. I understand what you mean in regards to keeping a gun inside the house. So, on a bit of a sideline issue; all the shooting we here about in the States must have something to do with the mind set of some Americans. In Canada, where gun ownership, percentage wise, is higher than America, has far less gun-related crime. You have seen that Michael Moore film 'Bowling for Columbine'. It alludes to my above notation.
Alcohol is one of the leading contributors to mental health issues.
All organised religion is bullshit.
Illegal immigration is a financial and economic drain on many nations.
Anyway, I thought I would respond to a few of your points. Like I said at the beginning, I pretty well agree with what you are saying here.
A very provocative post and thanks for submitting it.
Peace, Gary

The Wolf said...

Hey Kelly totally agree with many things you posted and like Klahanie I'm going to throw my two cents and observations into the pot.......you know cause that's what I gots to do.

Gun Control
Totally agree that everyone who's responsible should have the right to own and use a firearm be it to protect their family from an intruder or as a hobby.

Abortion
I've always been pro choice on the matter, it may be murder in the eyes of some but it's still the woman's right it is her body after all and if she was raped or forced into a pregnancy she didn't want it should be left up to her and her alone to decide what's best.

War On Drugs
Yup huge fucking waste of time. Instead legalize and control it so drugs don't become too potent to kill people such as mixing pot with crack for example. Also the government should spend money on safe injection sites to help stop the spread of infectious desieases from shared and dirty needles. Obviously we can't completly get rid of them but they need to be smarter with it.

Death Penalty
Yup scum like you mentioned arn't human fucking beings and a waste on society.

Religion and God

Can't stand religion, everyone practically belives in the same God yet they kill each other in God's name. As for God he can go fuck himself, but that's just my bitter outlook on that :)

Glad you posted this I always love these ones that make you think....sorry for leaving a novel for a comment.

Donda said...

I pretty much agree with you on everything but I do have a question for you to ponder. Is it fair to a child born out of rape to have to grow up knowing that it's father was a rapist? I think that would be very hard to handle being a teenage girl.

Gucci Mama said...

Donda - Since when do we punish a child for his father's crime? I don't follow how killing the baby could possibly be better than the knowledge of its parenthood, regardless of how horrifying. Doesn't make sense to me at all.

Unknown said...

This was one of my favorite posts of yours. You did bring up some great topics today. I agree with you on most of them. Though, I couldn't decide on "Abortion". An Innocent life should never be killed. But on reading Donda's comment, I had to hold my views. But then, Gucci Mama's comment again! Maybe, I'll just put the topic under "Haven't decided yet"

Have a great day, Kelly.

Donda said...

I am not saying punish a child. I am not even saying that I am for or against abortion. It was just a random thought that I had reading this post. I wonder how a child would feel growing up knowing what her father was or would it even have any effect at all? I cannot imagine. I had an alcoholic father and he sucked and it sucked being a teenager of just an alcoholic so what would it be like to know that your Dad is a vile rapist?

Gucci Mama said...

I grew up wishing I had any dad but the one I had. He was a horribly nasty, abusive man. But I never ever ever wished that I hadn't been born rather than have to endure the shit he dished out.

I think we need to be really careful about the misconception that abortion is a solution or treatment of a rape trauma. It most certainly isn't.

Speaking of, Sage and I are having this very thing out on the Real World next week sometime. Not sure when yet, but I'll link to it from my place when it goes up. I make some stellar points. ;)

Kelly said...

Gucci Mama- Thanks for commenting. I'll be by your site soon. I'm still playing catch up with a lot of blogs due to vacation preparation. Hey, and you rock my world, too. :)

Kelly said...

Angry Clown- Hey there, Damo, I thought you were freakin' dead or something. Thanks for the twitter message letting me know you were still among the living, man. Hey, and welcome to the Valium Club! Woohoo! Where the fuck have you been? I bet it's been more than a year since I heard from ya, at least.

Yeah, this post makes me wanna shit, too. lol. So I did. Right on my cat.

Kelly said...

klahanie- You're welcome, dude. lol. I figured I'd open a can of worms on this blog since I haven't done that sort of post for awhile. lol. Seriously, though, I'm happy no one has gotten too whacked out due to lil' ol me's opinions. That would be silly. I kinda figured you would agree with what I had to say... but, if you hadn't, that would have been fine, too. It's weird when you go on the BC forum and some others. Folks can get so bent out of shape on that one and others. Opinions are opinions. No better or worse than anyone else's.

You bring up a great point about Canada's gun ownership in regards to crime. I didn't know about that. Interesting.

Kelly said...

The Wolf- Hell, I like it when people leave 'novels' as comments. Sometimes those lengthy comments can be as interesting and informative as the posts that they're responding to. Rant away! lol.

That's cool that you mostly agree on most points and disagree on the abortion issue. As I mentioned before, everyone is entitled to their own opinion on these matters. As for 'God', I was angry at Him/Her/It for a long time for a very personal reason and used to tell him to go fuck Himself quite a few times. Hell, I may do it again in the future.

Glad you liked this post. I wasn't really sure (like I'm not sure about a lot of things) how folks reading this would react. So far, so good.

Kelly said...

Donda- You are quickly becoming one of my favorite commenters, along with all the rest that have commented so far on this post. If you keep this up, I'm gonna have to add ya to my blogroll. For real. :)

That's great that you agree with me pretty much on most points. Of course, I'd say the same if you completely disagreed with me on every issue I laid out. lol. As for your question, I still feel that it isn't justifiable to kill an innocent life (baby) even if the father was a rapist. And I'm also sure, like you said, that it would be hard for the teenage girl and the child (when grown up to the point where it can be told the truth about it's father) to handle it. But, with that said, I personally believe that it would be wrong and unfair for the baby to be killed because of HOW it was brought into the world.

Anyway, I'm glad you commented on this post. Everyone has had something interesting to contribute, in regards to commenting. I'll be by your site, soon.

Kelly said...

Mr. Stupid- Thanks for the compliment, dude. I agree with ya about the good points Donda and Gucci Mama brought up. Everyone has had some interesting viewpoints to offer. And no one has torn out anyone's throats for their opinions so far so that's always good. lol.

I'll be by your site soon. Sorry I haven't been there, lately, I've been really busy. Have a dandy day, friend!

Kelly said...

Donda- Yes, I was sincerely complimenting you. Sometimes, my good intentions or words are misconstrued because I am a bit sarcastic. Well, I'm a lot sarcastic, actually. lol. But I do sincerely see what you mean by putting yourself in someone else's shoes and I admire that quality in a person because I strive to do the same.

Have a great day.

Donda said...

Awesome!! Then it is about you time you get your carcass over to my blog :)

Kelly said...

Will do, Donda. lol. Just spent an hour searching for my damn wallet. The wifey had it buried beneath a pile of medical bills. She had me going bat-shitty looking for it. On my way, with carcass, to your place. lol.

Kelly said...

That's true, man. I remember what AC was/is all about. I wasn't sure if you were going to go back to blogging or not.

Yeah, I would like to do a post on AC now and then. I'm not real dependable these days, though, when it comes to doing posts on other blogs because the wife and I have a vacation cruise coming up and we're scrambling to get shit done (passports, paperwork, planning excursions on the trip, clothes buying and all that rot) before then... But I would like to go back to doing that with you again... Especially after the cruise next month.

Let me know if that's cool with ya.

Don't think I'm turning you down, dude... because I'm not. It's really great to hear from ya again. And you're right- It is good to old friends and fuck 'em up. lol.

Angry_Clown said...

Sounds awesome man just let me know and hope ya don't drown on ya cruise!!

Kelly said...

Thanks, AC.
