I said I wasn’t left or right, that’s it

Well, didn’t I say I was neither left or right?

Not really, some of those things yes but others no.

No you

It actually is.

That may be the way you see it, but I don’t.

I suppose this is where you call me a Nazi because I disagree with you?

With the left or the right?

A few things I side with: universal healthcare, reduced military spending, gay rights, legalization of marijuana, gun rights, reduced government spending in the business sector, reducing/overhauling the current farm bill, increased infrastructure spending.

Since you need to know? I said that because that’s how the person I was replying to put it, not me.

So the only reason anyone buys a gun is to kill minorities?

And while the scope is small vs even smaller gov in the US, the difference is still there. To say it doesn’t matter is frankly ignorant.

The point is you’re talking in extremes. And I will agree extreme liberals are better than extreme conservatives, the world isn’t that black and white, especially when you talk about voting for anyone besides President.

So what if someone doesn’t want to kill minorities but wants to buy guns and wants limited government involvement in the economy?

It’s not even that black and white, because the term democrat and republican as far as political views mean much different things when it comes to different ages, backgrounds, area, etc.

For example, I tend to lean right when it comes to economics, however I do support things like public healthcare. Also, I lean pretty far left on social issues.

There are people all over the spectrum on all sorts of issues. I can see where it bothers people to be labeled one or the other because that’s not really who they are. I truly try to break candidates down by what their stances are and pick who most aligns with what I believe. I can honestly say every ballot I’ve ever cast I’ve voted for both Democrats and Republicans.

The only people I have a problem with is people that try to tell me I’m stupid because i didn’t vote all one way or the other.

This comment section is a riot.

So if someone truly has values that fall on both sides of the aisle, and can tell you what they don’t agree with on both sides, and can admit fault to each side… that makes them Republican?

I’d rather take someone any day that will take a stance on individual issues over just agreeing with what a specific political party says.

Everyone saying in this comment section that you aren’t strictly a Democrat you’re wrong/the problem… are indeed themselves the problem and are kidding themselves.
