Controversys

Should the drinking age be lowered to 18? i think it should because at 18 we are legal to do everything else. I also think it would lower the amount of problems associated with young drinkers because it would not be a big deal to get alcohol. if it is legal it wont seen like a big deal to get drunk, hopefully lowering the amount of stupid things that happen. I do not think it should be lowered because i want to drink at 18. I see a goal that would make everyone safer because it would not be special to have the alcohol.

Tazers have become a controversy. some think they are safe and a very helpful tool for law enforcement, but others think it is a torture device that does not help at all. i am for the use of these but the training needed to get a tazer is horrible. the officer needs 11 hours of training witch basically just covers the owners manual from the manufacture. government guide lines need to be stepped up to make this a practical safe tool for cops.

Animal farms have become large factory's, most times very cruel to the livestock just to save some money. this is a controversy because in ways we do like these factory's because they keep the price of food in the store cheap. But is hell for the animals most of them do not even see the light of day. they are packed like sardines in these factory's. the large factory also puts the small farms out of business that has much better living conditions, but cannot compete with the low prices of the factory.
Gun control is of importance to me because i do own guns and the gun violence has become a problem. I dont want to see guns go away but the violence is not good. The government needs to look over regulations and restructure the entire system. The main goal is to keep the second amendment, and to keep everyone safe.
