Okay DP!! I'm in need of opinions!
By Soulseeker
Okay.... I am in a big arguement with a teacher about this issue. I have
my valid points and he has his. we agrued to the point where he kicked
me out of class. Well... In order for all of this to be solved I have to
have the opinions of others and make a chart weighing who says yes to the
following question and who says no. PLease help me out so I can get my
freaking grade.
1.Should congress provide MORE money to the military to increase benefits
and support to soldiers and their families during times of war?
2.Should there be a constitutional amendment declaring that marriage in
the United States consist only of a union between a man and a woman?
-Note: If there is a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between
a man and a woman, individual states could not issue marriage licenses
to unmarried couples or groups who do not fit the set description.
Okay... Pick one and answer it. Please tell me more than yes or no and
tell me which question you are answering. I perfer for these to be mailed
to me on DP because I am hoping there will be more than one line responses.
If you do not think you can do that, then you do not have to respond at
all! Thank you all! Bethany

and in reference to your second question:: no , there should not be an amendment limiting gay marriages. . flat out, I think it's personal choice. . and it's not right of any human, regardless of status, to strip any other human of that practice. But yeah

Hmm.. I'd say that yes, they should be provided more money. simply because these soldiers sometimes have no other options other than the military, it is not always their fault and perhaps they don't support the war but they kind of have to be there. . .an

answer to 1- me and my brothers and sisters deserve the money (even though I haven't quite figured out who is really getting it) answer to 2- there should be no argument about this issue- love is love regardless of it's shape.

In answer to question 1: Yes. The soldiers are fighting for the American people, not themselves.
In answer to question 2: No. The government should not 'define' the actions of anyone, regardless of circumstance.

so the soldiers and their families should be compensated for the soldiers efforts and also because the family is without one full adult member...what if that soldier provided half the child care, or took care of an ill family member..

Second first: Marriage is not an political issue. Iran or the U.S same deal, same way of thinking. If you make religion a political issue one rule/law will apply to the next.

The first question is simple politics no matter how ugly it is. Are you a nation that are for or against violence? And if for, then for defence or attack? If against, then for defence if under treat?

When you find that out, work from there. The U.S got a past of expansion. If the U.S is still stuck in expansionism or not, I wont be the judge of today. And by not doing that, I cant say what politics should apply for the army either.

I fear the U.S army is not subject for politics, it is making them.

I am sorry but I am NOT a nod and smile kind of person. When someone asks for my opinions then I give them unless I am unaware of the topic being discussed. I give thanks to everything except nod and smile...... WTF?!?

More power to you for that, but I've found that (at least for me), there will always be petty, self-rightous people above me, and manipulating them is neccessary for a time. In the interest of not being petty, I apologize for IMing you.

I didn't read the bottom paragraph, so here's my opinion on the first one: Military families already recieve generous bonuses, and our soldiers are paid well. People are just bitching because we're losing some people in Iraq.

1. No 2. No. And a little bit of advice, soulseeker: don't argue to that point with a teacher. Many of them are confident in thier own opinions. Just agree and smile, knowing that they're wrong.
