For example I don't like black shoes or white trainers, and I believe only w@nkers wear jeans with holes in them, but in the grand scheme of things these opinions don't do any harm.
What really gets my goat is when politicians and groups attempt to impose their views on a nation. I might not be a homosexual but does that mean I should seek political power with the intention of limiting gay rights? I'm not a pregnant woman so I certainly shouldn't be able to make abortion illegal.
These people can have their opinions, if you don't feel abortion is right that's your opinion, but you cannot impose that view on others, you can't fight a political campaign and use the hatred of others to gain you political authority.
Perhaps democracy doesn't work because the world is a frightened and idiotic place?
I bet some of you out there think I am thinking of Mitt Romney or Republicans, and these comments are certainly applicable to a man that seems to have changed so many of his platforms in the hope of obtaining the US presidency. But it's more general than that, I think political power will always appeal to those wanting to impose their views, often extremist but not always. Joe Average couldn't give a crap and has no motivation to become Prime Minister, President or Chancellor because it's a lot of work, but for somebody that wants to enforce their views on others it sure is an attractive and rewarding aspiration.
Vote tgwmcm for President of the Earth.
