This article is split half and half. They have proven a lot of legit reasons as to why prostitution should be legalized, but many people feel so strongly against it at the same time.

First, nice one Phebs. Now when it comes to this it should definetly be illegal, because it only leads to more problems.

I think it should remain illegal because it could lead to legalization of pimping and prostitution rings. The dirtbags who are willing to sell women for their bodies deserve to rot in jail. Even if prostitution became legal there would still be jerkoffs who won't want to follow the state regulated standards put in place.

This site goes on about which states fund abortions through medicare and for whether they fund them in case of rape or for other reasons.

Is it important to us that our government looks at our Metadata? The government work's hard to Prove that our privacy is safe however they take liberties when it comes to private Phone Communications. The information they gather is much larger then we think.

If they "need" to look at our metadata it makes me wonder what they're doing with all our information.

In this day and age this is to be expected, the government is all about control, and when it comes to phone calls or even the internet they will do their best to control these places. Not siding with the government Im just stating their poor reasonings for doing this.

Balancing the Fourth Amendment rights and the need for law enforcement to obtain useful evidence is very difficult. in many cases, law enforcement officials have not been able to secure the evidence needed to proceed with the conviction process of suspects.

I understand an automobile is private property but I don't see the problem with searches. If someone is worried about their vehicle being searched than there is probably something in there that shouldn't be and it needs to be searched!

I agree searches should be allowed in investigations. Our rights are ment to protect us, but many want to use it for selfish reasons.

You can see two Maryland kids walking happily home, stop them, throw them in a cruiser, hold them for five hours, and make their parents sign a "Safety Plan" before they're allowed to get 'em back.

This article looks at the gun control laws in other countries and the reasons why they developed those laws. IN 2012 the death of 20 children at a school in Newtown Connecticut caused an upraise in the debate on whether we should have a more strict gun control law or not. President Obama tried getting semi-automatics and military style weapons banned and having a more strict background check was defeated in the senate in 2013. Since the mass shootings in 2015 Obama is trying to rekindle the bill.

In this article it argues that a more strict gun control will not reduce crime. The NRA (National Rifle Association) said that gun owners are sports enthusiasts and not criminals. This article also points out that since the 1960's the government have been debating on the issue of gun control but nothing has changed. Neither side (Democratic and Conservative) are listening to each other, they are counteracting and arguing but not listening to each others beliefs on this issue, which is a main reason why this debate has been going on for so long.

Author D B Kopel argues that gun control in countries like Great Britain, Australia, Switzerland, Japan, New Zealand, Canada, and Jamaica is not the reason for their low crime rate. In fact he states that their gun control law is the cause for more burglaries and that gun registration has been proven in these countries to be valueless in solving or preventing crimes.

In April, the Senate rejected the Toomey-Manchin gun control proposal. In the wake of its defeat many wonder why give this a chance to be passed. Trying to make every gun legal to buy wont be easy to do. Creating the right to purchase a firearm no short cuts. Make it difficult for people who do not have license to sell them on the streets.

congress voted another time to take away funds to planned parenthood. Reimbursing members and abortion included in the plan are big reasons why.

Planned Parenthood is once again being voted on whether to stay funded or to be defunded. The house of reps is expected to pass a bill that will about 450 million out of planned parenthood. The Govt. has not funded the abortion side of planned parenthood since 1976, so some Democrats criticize them.

Apple Inc. faces a fear that the corporate business has worried about happening before in the past. Privacy rights and laws and breaking what is in place, but for good or bad reason.

What would happen if the United States suddenly stopped building walls and instead flung open its borders, not unlike the European Union has done among the member countries of the common market? Conservatives malign the notion and liberals, even radical ones, haven't exactly embraced the "open borders" concept.
