I like black licorice much more than red licorice. I also like black and green jellybeans and jube-jubes, which everyone else seems to hate. They yellow lemon flavored ones are my least favorite.

Bernie Sanders needs to drop out as a Democrat candidate because if he doesn't between the DC primaries and the Democrat convention, he'll be a distraction to Hillary Clinton's campaign.

I think fandoms in general are very obnoxious and annoying, even if I share their interest. They are virtually impossible to please, they argue endlessly and pointlessly over fictional characters, and it never seems to occur to them that the object of their fandom isn't always perfect, the person or persons who created said object are human and occasionally make mistakes, or that sometimes changes *need* to be made.

Anime fandom has got to be the worst. Criticize any anime, even without being a jerk or saying anything untrue, and they want your head on a stake. And I thought *I* had no life. :roll:

All youths should be fighting for their countries right now.

I think the newer Simpsons episodes aren't actually that bad

Some Americans must be uneducated thinking most feminism is about keeping all the old benefits of a woman plus gaining the bennies of men, at the same time they hate all men.... when in fact feminism is most often about gender equality.

Also an unpopular view for some Americans, patriotism is just nationalism (which Nazism came out of), but they had to redraw the concept and skip the race aspect, otherwise it is the same. It is ugly to always think America is the best, yadda yadda.

Kids should be allowed to play outside alone with other kids. There is a slight chance of abduction and abuse. But there is a certainty of being understimulated, underexercised, feeling trapped and not developing life skills if only allowed outside if guarded by a parent at all time.

I think men should have the right of legal abortion. No matter how the pregnancy happened (accident or not), the man has the right to legally terminate the pregnancy for the same time the woman has the right to physically end it.

It means that if he legally uses his rights, the baby if born, will have nothing to do with him. He can't see it and the mom cannot have financial support for the child from him. He will not formally, legally be a father.

He has the right to change his mind, or right an accident too, even if I don't think he should be able to force an actual, physical abortion.

I hardly ever got to do this or go out anywhere else with others when I was younger, and look at me now. I'm too shy to do anything, and I have trouble keeping friends because I'm too scared to make an effort in case I go too far, and so they prefer their other friends over me because they're more interesting and they've known them for longer.

I don't believe in IVF or surrogacy. Motherhood is a privilege not a right.

I believe, in certain circumstances, in folk taking the law into their own hands.

I don't believe in censorship, at least not when all are adults. Protection of children fair enough but adults should be mature enough to make up their own minds.

We should stop reproducing until we die out.

I agree, the world is already vastly overcrowded and the human race is the most evil species on earth.

Just because a show or movie is "dark and edgy" does NOT mean that it's good. I am so sick of that mindset.

I agree, that can make it boring, and trying too hard to be realistic will make it unrealistically dark.

I also don't like how almost every show these days has to have at least one death per season (By that I mean one of the "Good" characters, as opposed to the villains, who people usually want to die). Killing off too many characters is making us all worry that our favourite character will be killed off next as the list grows smaller, and this is also unrealistic - Yes, people die in real life, but when it comes to the people we know, it's usually far less often than on TV, and the death is usually cased by accidents or diseases rather than being killed by another person. I just don't like how writers decide that in order to make their story "Good," they must kill off at least one character. Are there any good stories that are not aimed at little children where just about everyone lives by the end?

People should have a choice on whether or not to fight for their country. After all, they didn't ask to be born there and they didn't start the war.
There should be no monarchies.

I also wish to sincerely thank all who have contributed to this thread for accepting everyone's opinions in a mature and sensible manner.
