Fox Loses GOP Debate Support

Bull****. Let me ask you this, what do you think would happen if you were walking down the street with a friend, and a large, scary gangbanger looking type was walking towards you. You friend says he thinks the guy has a gun, and is going to shoot you, so you pull out a gun, and blow his head off. What do you think is going to happen to you? Do you think that anyone is going to say it's ok, because your friend told you he was going to attack you, and you thought he had a gun so you just pre-emptively killed him? Too simplistic? Nope, not at all.

No one has the right to kill someone else out of fear. It is criminal.

Why don't you give some examples of big government that you like, that Ron Paul wants to get rid of, and back up any assertation that we need them.

Not exactly the best metaphor.

How about the gangbanger yelling at people that he had a gun and was going to shoot me, and let's say that my friend had a network of spies that were sure he was going to shoot me. Then it's self defense.

I don't like big government, it's just that America is not ready for the downsizing Paul wants.

He acts like we're in the 1700s and he is running against the Federalists. Leave everything to the states, etc, etc.

America HAS become WAY too Federalist. So in a way, he is running against Federalists. And there's nothing wrong with running America like it was designed to be run.

Paulbots, the new move-on, LOL.

I can't understand why you think any of Dr. Paul's ideas are bad. Name one policy of his and explain why it's a bad idea.

The abortion issue. That however is a personal issue.

One of the big reasons I like Ron Paul is he knows what the internet is, he knows how to use it properly, he actually uses it and he understands why the gov't needs to leave it the hell alone.

Your right Ron Paul supports the Ronettes spamming the straw votes to make it look like a greater number of voters support his Liberal leaning kooky views Ron Paul is a RINO or to be really Honest Ron Paul is a fraud

In order to move this country into the future, we need somebody in the hot seat that realizes the internet's potential and capability and actively utilizes it, rather than thinking it's a place where kids get raped and high school students make plans to shoot up their classmates after playing a video game.

Destruction of life is wrong. It's a symptom of America's disregard for accountability and lack of responsibility. If you're not prepared to care for a child, you shouldn't have sex, It's that simple. Abortion wouldn't be an issue, neither would STD's if America would show some morality and quit being such sluts.

I agree with you. I do not believe abortion should be a form of birth control. Ever.

However, to completely ban it is wrong. There are the rare cases where such a procedure is required to save the mother's life. Perhaps her body just can't support a developing child and she's just now finding this one out. It does happen.

You solve this entire problem with education.

I'm not talking abstinence... that NEVER works. We're living things, driven to do what living things have been doing for billions of years... reproduce. These kids need to know how it works, why it works, and how to get around it (contraceptives). As a parent and once very rebellious teenager, I know that just because you tell a group of kids "No, don't do this! It's bad!" that it doesn't mean they're not gonna do it. Especially when much of society is sex-driven.

If you educate the population properly, it won't matter what popular culture throws at them.

The number of cases where it is actually justified pales in comparison to the number of times it is performed. It should only be performed as a last resort.

The fact that you have urges to do something doesn't justify it. A pyromaniac is not justified in arson and is not given the opportunity to make it better for himself by killing a child.

Instead of just telling kids NO, we should hold them responsible for their decisions. If a girl gets knocked up after consensual sex, she should be forced to care for the child that she recklessly created (without govt. assistance). If teenagers could look at their friends who got knocked up and were forced to deal with the consequences instead of being given an easy out by destroying a life, fewer teenagers would engage in careless intercourse.

True, and the best way to learn is through accountability. People need to realize how serious it is when a life is created. It is our moral duty to preserve life, especially the life that we have been blessed with the ability to create. To destroy it is outrageously inhuman. The majority of justification I see for abortion is selfishness.

Again, agreed. However it should be available, should that last resort be needed.

Bad comparison. A pyromaniac has his "urges" because of a chemical imbalance or just being plain ol' wacko. Reproduction is THE driving force of life. Pyromaniacs make up less than one percent of the human population. Every single lifeform on this planet reproduces.

Reproduction has been ingrained into us since the dawn of life itself. Any attempt to restrict that drive will fail. The rhythm of life is a powerful beat.

The problem most people in America is that where they want someone held responsible for their actions, they want to give little allowance for a person to be responsible in their actions. Sex education, REAL sex education. Contraceptives and awareness of them. More education on STDs and family planning. Give them the ability to be responsible first, then hold them accountable if they aren't responsible.

The best way to learn is through learning. Teach and give the tools to do something properly and responsibly. THEN if they fail to do that, hold them accountable.
