Strongest opinion

All child abusers should be executed once there is irrefutable DNA evidence to prove their guilt, this would act as a deterrent as well as reduce the number of abused children which in turn reduces the number of abusers as a lot of child abusers were victims themselves of abuse. Plus there is currently no known cure and i do not see the point in keeping alive a person that that can not and should not be let out into the wider community to abuse again and perpetuate the cycle of abuse from generation to generation.
 
I don't like racism.
 
I have many opinions that I keep hidden deep inside. (I don't like controversy)
If I had to choose one, it would be that religion is the root of all evil, and so is racism.
We are all the same deep down inside regardless of race, color, or what a book says..
Eliminate religion and and race and there will be peace for all.
 
At the risk of pissing the local boozers off (hey, Doc L ;)), I'll say that my strongest opinion is that alcohol should be strictly prohibited on the entire planet. Any attempt of manufacturing, distributing and / or consuming it should be a punishable offense. Alcohol used for medical purposes is fine, but should be strictly controlled.

I have no problem whatsoever with people drinking their own lives away. Their money - their health - their choice. Not my problem. I do, however, have a huge problem with people turning into abusive monsters when drunk. As I mentioned in another thread here, I am yet to meet so much as a single person who drinks responsibly and / or doesn't turn into a monster when drunk.

When a child uses a toy to hit another child with it, parents respond by taking the toy away from the child to prevent further attacks, and to teach a child a lesson. Why not applying the same logic to alcohol? Wait, I know. Because alcohol is one of the most selling merchandise in the world, so it would be bad for business to prohibit it. Not to mention the failure of an already attempted prohibition is US.


Disclaimer: My post is not aimed at anyone here in particular (hey, Doc L :P), so if anyone took it personally, it wasn't my intention. :)
