I think they should give all UFC fighters swords and shields.
Pro Gun Law, Pro Universal Health Care, Left wing political views.
You'd be surprised.Those are only unpopular in places like....well.....Texas.

Not saying that, but there's usually an unpopular gesture towards the aforementioned laws. More behind it, but on a tablet, so can't delve too far.That's what I keep hearing in the media.
Not that it's reflected in my Facebook feed, but if CNN says it, it must be right.....right?

Most Americans and even Europeans in actuality. Even here where we have gun laws and the NHS. I know people who wants guns everywhere and want the NHS gone.Those are only unpopular in places like....well.....Texas.

Welcome to modern politics/humanity. That's why I never bother in delving into them, just a waste of time and knowledge. Much rather simply debate something than get into a full fledged argument in politics. If it's not politics, I'll debate it to hell though.Don't worry about it. I'm just picking a bit.
I'm not a liberal, but I have many liberal friends. And some people take those distinctions way too seriously. I've had to deal with idiots (who just happen to call themselves "conservative", even though they can't spell it) who wanted to start shit over people being liberal...or just basically being different. Those people suck as human beings, no matter their political opinions.

I appreciate debate as well. Always fun to just sit down in my house with whoever else is there (I live with 6 other people, not related to any of em), and start casually talking about something until it turns into heated debate. I can usually accept anything as a topic for debate, but if it comes down to something stupidly political (which it hasn't) then at that point I see no point in bothering to argue. Everything just goes out the window at that point.I love debate. I have friends I can sit down with and we can piss, moan, and bitch at each other for hours about pro-gun-control vs. anti-gun-control, pro-choice vs. pro-life, pro-death-penalty vs. anti-death-penalty, or just about any topic (the really funny thing is that most of us could take either side effectively on any of those issues), then we come to an impasse, take a sip of whiskey, beer, coffee, what-have-you, and start talking about what's going on in our lives, with our families, etc., and you'd never realize we were just having an argument.
Actually, my relationship with my father was like that. We were pretty similar politically, but we could argue the finer points until the cows came home. We'd fuss and fight until my mother came in and told us both to shut up, often to my wife's great delight, and then we'd start talking Houston Astros baseball, Dallas Cowboys football, or Texas Longhorns (three topics we were always in complete agreement on).
It was a great way to grow up, though, and gave me a tremendous amount of respect for pluralistic viewpoints and how to defend my opinions without getting personal.
I know, "cool story, bro". :happy:
