I am for legalizing drugs, against aborting laws, pro gay rights, for the separation of church and state.

Let me clarify something about the “gay rights” comment, before others who I have argued with chime in.

Rights belong to all people, not a sub group, so I am for all rights being giving to all Americans. I hate the terms “gay rights”, “woman’s rights”, and so on. There are no “gay rights”, only human rights.

So while I am for this country to progress in a manner where everyone has the rights to live, work, and prosper, I am not for classifying a group of people, and then giving them some sort of rights.

We need to just change the laws so the rights everyone should already have, are not taken from them. So for example, get rid of marriage as a legal term and only recognize civil unions for legal purposes, and then let any two people join in a civil union, or let any two adults marry. That’s should not be a gay right, it’s a right all people should have.
