Presidential Election - A little disappointed that McCain didn't win, but it's alright, I guess I can live with Obama. Just hoping that God will guide him in his decisions for the next four years.
Prop 1A - I fucking love trains, so I can't wait for the high-speed bullet trains to take effect. This is the only thing that I agree with that San Francisco voted for as a city.
Prop 2 - I don't believe that people voted yes on prop 2. It makes sense to me that all the agricultural counties in California voted no on it, cause they don't wanna waste their time doing this bullshit of having more space for the fucking animals so we can eat them anyway. I mean really? I don't go to Chili's and ask the server (hopefully female), "Hey before I eat this steak, I was wondering if you knew that the cow had enough room in its cell before it got slaughtered."
Prop 3 - Children's Hospital. I voted no on this only for the fact that I didn't feel like spending more tax dollars on that. I'm sorry children, this may seem cruel, but we're in debt far enough.
Prop 4 - I don't believe that parents voted no on this particular proposition. I hope in the future I raise my daughter right so she won't have to deal with being pregnant at a minor age, but I'm also hoping she would let me know, so I can ground her for life.
Prop 5 - Was this the druggie one? Fuck you guys, go to jail. It serves you right to abuse drugs and I don't have a single bit of sympathy for you. Get healthy.
Prop 6 - I'm glad that this one was completely dominated. Why would I wanna waste my tax dollars to help cops so that they can just give me more tickets? We could be using that money for education and other things, like high-speed trains.
Prop 7 - Energy... the only thing I have to say about alternative energy is: Who cares?
Prop 8 - I have nothing against gay people (as long as you don't flaunt it in public communities and keep yourselves behind closed doors). I'm tired of people complaining that this particular proposition didn't pass and are trying to get it back on the ballot. We've already voted for this in 2006, and it was unfair that the Supreme Court of California overturned the voters' decision this May. This is why it was on the ballot.
Prop 9 - Victim's rights... cool, whatever. I voted yes.
Prop 10 - Energy again? No, who cares?
Prop 11 - Redistricting... whatever I voted yes on that.
Prop 12 - Providing housing and farms for veterans. My father is a veteran of the Vietnam War, so I'm happy this prop passed. I almost voted no on this, however, until I read it over.
Measure R - LA County Traffic Relief. Really guys? Did you really vote yes on this so we can raise our taxes to 8.75%? There's alternative routes to get home, take them. I'm not buying anything in LA County, time to go to Orange.
Measure RR - I haven't checked it, but I don't see why anyone would vote no on expanding Mt. Sac's educational offerings.
In closing, I'd just like to say that the people voted a certain way for a certain purpose. It's immature to raise up in anger of how something was already decided. Squall once said in Final Fantasy VIII, "If that's how it was decided, you have to abide by it." I believe in what he had to say for the main fact that it is a valid statement. We live in a country of democracy; the greatest in the world. I love America and it's policies. The people, I may not all agree with, though. Just stop trying to change the way things were decided in your rage, or whatever, it's just not in the best interest of the people. What's done is done. This country was made to reflect the people's choice. This "[...] government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
You can say what you want, but this is just my response because it seems like anything a conservative says is deemed as wrong. Why are we the ones that get put down? We're seen as heartless individuals that want to keep things traditional. But are there really people that are heartless? Me, I may not have the nicest views about these things, but that's just cause I've had it with the constant bashes on conservatives. I still care, only about certain things, and that's the reason why I believe the way I do.
