I've been lurking for a few days, and I love the way this forum is set up.
Gives me a chance to get some intelligent(for the most part, from what I've read...) conversation about things I'm very interested in without being disciplined on other forums.
I'm strong-willed, but open to just about everything. Very respectful about other peoples' views(although have a "different" sense of humor that can sometimes lead people to believe otherwise).
And just as in intro to my personal political ideas -
Very anti-death penalty
Opposed to the way our prison system is run(a lot of different issues. Including, but not limited to, treatment rather than mandatory minimum sentencing.)
I tend to have liberal ideas, but am an Independent rather than "Democrat". Two reasons for that: 1)The ideas of modern democrats are skewed by money just as badly as Republicans. 2) I think that personal ideas are a better system by which to govern oneself than conforming to a uniform belief system.
