death penalty

Conservatives are for the death penalty. They believe that if you do the crime you should pay for it. Liberals are against the death penalty, they believe that jail is a better option- and killing is unjust I am liberal on this issue because i believe that if it turns out the person isnt guilty- you can't bring them back to life. There have been studies shown saying that people have been found not-guilty after being killed.

gun control

Liberals believe that gun control laws should be more enforced. They do not believe that guns are helping only hurting our society. On the other hand, conservatives believe that the gun control laws are not doing anything. They believe that people should be allowed to own guns for protection. I am liberal on this issue. I think that people should not have guns and that there are other ways to protect yourself rather that guns. I think owning a gun can send the wrong signal to children.

gay rights

Liberals believe that gay people should have the right to get married in the US. Conservatives believe that marriage is only for the purpose to conceive so they shouldnt get married. Conservatives believe that it is wrong. I am liberal when it comes to gay rights. I think that all people should have the right to get married to one another- gays , straight people, blacks, whites, ect.

abortion

Liberals are pro-choice and conservatives and pro-life. Liberals believe that the government should not be in control of what the mother wants to do with her baby. Conservatives believe that aborting a baby is murder. I am a liberal when it comes to abortion. I believe that a woman should have the right to decide what she wants to do with her body.

liberals and conservatives

I think that conservatives and liberals are very different. Liberals are more open minded than conservatives. Conservatives focus more on the wealthier people and liberals focus more on the middle/lower classes. Conservatives are very traditional and usually do not change their thinking. Liberals are more laid back.
