Huh, I haven't made a serious post in here yet.
By reading the gun control thread and thinking about it for a while, I became pro-gun. The most convincing argument for that side to me was that crime rates do not go up when more people have guns, because most criminals don't want to get in a firefight.
For my American Government class, I have to do a 2,000-page report on any controversial topic relating to American government (which is due... tomorrow. crraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaapppppppppp). I chose drug legalization, and the more research I do, the more convinced I am that A) "soft" drugs like marijuana should be legalized but regulated similar to alcohol, and B) the punishment for possession of illegal drugs should be greatly reduced. My county actually recently released a bunch of people, even felons, from prison with no bail because the prisons are overcrowded.
I also had to see a play for another college course, and I actually had fun. Thus, I changed my mind and decided that live theater doesn't suck. In fact, I enjoy it more than movies :o
