My personal politics are contradictory.
I frequently engage in "homosexual acts", but do not support gay marriage.
I have a strong respect for and belief in God, even though some of His followers say I'll burn in hell for whom I chose to have sex with.
I am an aggresive militrist, but question commiting troops for police actions; expressly if there is no international danger or if there is nothing to gain by such deployments. If two countries or factions or ethnic groups want to go to war, then let them. Just as long asthey do not threaten my Country's interests and security or that of our allies.
I am a passionate gun owner. To quote Mr. Heston, "You can take my guns when you pry them out of my cold, dead hands." However I recognize that some weapons should stay illegal, also some people should not have firearms.
I support the first ammendment, but some people take it much too far. It's one thing to disagree with the government, but one should not cross the line into sedition or treason. But, if the government becomes destructive to its purpose, it needs to be abolished then reformed. As Caesar said, "I love treason but hate a trator."
I don't support abortion, but do support the death peanality.
Overall, I'd say I'm a conservative that has some 'left leanings'.
