I tend to think that if you are an American and you’re completely at odds with an entire political party, you’re probably wrong somewhere...

So what are some issues that you agree with in the opposite political party from which you normally vote?

For me, being conservative, I believe in many liberally social issues. I uphold the rights of LBGT, I believe in equal opportunity, I’m pro-choice (although I would choose life) and I absolutely, without a doubt, believe in human-driven climate change.

Even though I'm a far-left Democrat, I think gun control is a waste of time. There are far too many guns in circulation for any restrictions to have an effect, so I'd go along with the Republicans on this issue. That being said, I think the Republican party is in the pocket of the NRA, which has turned into a lobbying arm of the handgun manufacturing industry. So I don't think the GOP's motivation here is anything more than pleasing their corporate sponsors. But the end result is the same.

Personally, I wouldn't have a problem with registering my own guns and being licensed, but realistically I'm not sure that would have any effect.

I’m not so sure that full auto with unlimited rounds should be available. @LeopoldBloom

The liberal kind 😂? @Budwick
@jackjjackson Full auto with unlimited rounds isn't available. I'm not advocating loosening the gun laws.
@Budwick Haven't what - registered my guns? No one has told me to.
