Less demand, the less the need for supply.

I would never want to be President...but hypothetically speaking I'd reveal any proof of extraterrestrials.
Policies? All city maintenance starts no earlier than 9:30am. I can't stand being woken up by construction work at 7am. This goes for residential too. No lawnmowers either. I know I would not limit people to only have 2 kids or ban religion in public places (I don't even understand this one...it's not like the government runs on religious beliefs) Obviously don't push your religion on others but that's already established even though some still do it.

Your constitution prohibits me from being president. Too bad, because I have some really good ideas.

Being somewhat of a news junkie, when you have these online articles (i.e. Washington Post, The Guardian, The Mirror) posting about it, and bringing up the issue. Naturally, it will make it's way up into the mainstream, including the social and legal aspects of it.

Let's not act like there aren't some people who do the same on the other side of the coin.

As for my policies, the main thing I would want to do is just get better healthcare and make it so insurance companies can't limit the elderly to things they need as well as people recovering from strokes and such. One example is that for my dad's catheter, insurance will only allow one catheter kit per month and not allow a spare so that means Mom has to buy a spare herself in case we need one. I would make it so insurance companies would have to adhere to giving the patient whatever they need and not limiting them. Also, doctors should treat patients as people and not numbers and should be allowed to spend as much time with their patients as they want to. It used to be that doctors would treat people like actual people and really want to know more about them. Nowadays, you're just a number and nothing more and that's a shame. I would also make abortion illegal with no exceptions and would treat it as a murder. Doctors who perform abortions would have their licenses revoked and face prison time or the death penalty depending on the state. Same goes for the woman. Those who get pregnant as a result of rape or incest would undergo counseling and then have the choice of either keeping the baby or placing it for adoption. Transgenders would not be allowed to use the bathroom of their identified gender unless they have fully transitioned though a separate bathroom would be implemented in a unisex capacity for those who wish to do that and to make people who may not be comfortable with a transgender using the bathroom feel more at ease. Protesting in a peaceful manner would still be allowed but any rioting or looting would result in either prison time or community service to fix whatever damage the person caused. They would also be banned from ever protesting again. The right to bear arms will continue as such but if someone uses their gun in a malicious manner to cause harm, said rights will be revoked from that person and they will never be allowed to use a gun again. Illegal immigrants would be able to obtain citizenship in an easier manner if they have lived here for a certain number of years. Children of illegals shall not be deported and all families shall be able to obtain citizenship. Those who need disability shall be able to have it if a doctor has approved it. Those who try to get disability and are not approved by a doctor shall be denied. Other than that, I really can't think of anything else. However, I would never really want to be President because you have to play all kinds of dishonest games and that's not my forte.

Must be great to live in Larry's world.
A magical place where women never have complications during pregnancy. But I'll never know, because gay people apparently don't exist there. ... Maybe if everyone claps their hands, and believes hard enough, Larry WILL believe in fairies.

The thing about having a religious faith or background is that you can still have it and not demean or impose on everyone else.
Even if your religion or your God or your faith tells you that such and such is wrong or sinful, you are still beholden to treat those people with respect and dignity. We're all human--so treat each other like it. Just because God created you special doesn't mean that everybody else isn't.

Tolerant is probably a better fit. I mean, the prohibitionists weren't actively seeking to start bootlegging and the violence that it created, but they were more than happy to turn a blind eye to it, provided it they didn't see it.

'fan' may have been a bit hyperbolic, but still stands. You can't ban abortions, only safe abortions.
