Man what do people have against specific sited examples. I will go a head and assume you made an argument that the liberal in me should be for the Brady Bill and the libertarian against. This is not an example of how the two are polar opposites but the Brady Bill is a good example of where my liberal and libertarian sides came to odds. I have to say that in the end my liberal side won out and I decided that I support it. Owning guns is a right and making someone wait 5 days is not denying them that right. In its current form don't have to wait but do have an on the spot background check. As it turns out I do believe that anyone who wanted a gun and needed it in less than 5 days is exactly the person I think should have to wait. Foreign policy, government spending and welfare are about the furthest things from sited examples as you could get so I am going to make this my last post. In closing many people have said that I am not a typical liberal and that one thing I say or do is really conservative. I often come back and say no that's libertarian. These ideals rarely come into conflict for me so I have to whole heartedly disagree with your stance that they are polar opposites. Do we need welfare reform, sure. But I believe its necessary. I think its wrong that we provide more for our prisoners than we do for our citizens. That's a big yes to we should lower the drinking age to 18.Originally Posted by Typical_08
