I was feeling a bit introspective today which made me curious and I figured I'd post.
We are all assumedly Pats fans, so regardless of our personal political/religious beliefs, we'd still probably clink glasses/high five/hug and scream at the bar while watching the Pats beat the Dolphins.
However, there's usually at least 1 issue that causes your hair to stand on end, for you to start frothing at the mouth, or that just makes you want to punch someone in the face. (Other than someone being a Jets fan).
I can generally debate with anyone and be civilized on almost any matter but my face-punching button gets pushed the hardest by anti-war peacenik hippie punks who will protest, march, and argue their face blue that killing is wrong, blah blah blah, yet not realize that they have the freedom to do these things specifically because someone else at some point in time took up arms and killed for their right to do/say it.
I've always felt this way, yet ironically I do not come from a military family. My current occupation is not a cause, yet no doubt an effect of whatever originally instilled in me the need to serve. I've yet to narrow it down to anything concrete though.

What is your issue and where does your strong belief come from?

(If your button is, for example, anti-abortion and someone else's button is pro-abortion, please avoid trying to argue your point here. All I am curious about is what your button is, and why you think that way)
Thanks!

The seemingly never ending innapropriate use of the race card is mine.

A close second though is people's inability to recognise and admit their own prejudice. I personally have to keep an eye on myself for that BTW.

Mine is people and corporations who think that it's OK to ***** wherever they want as long as jobs are made. I'm the guy who calls someone out for dropping a candy bar wrapper out the car window. Freaks me out.

Second worst one is how our culture feels the need to identify everything in black and white (or red and blue) terms.

"The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him."
Leo Tolstoy, 1897

I would also like to add The Illegal Alien Invasion and the way the friggin democrat liberal rats try to play the Race card with it.

Free Money. The belief that some have, particularly with entitlements, that when the government prints money it doesn't cause a ripple effect in people's wallets in the way of inflation, devaluation or taxation. We all want to provide relief to those in need but efforts to mask that relief so people aren't "ashamed" and to push the "economic equality" button will eventually cause the whole system to fall down.

Leave No Doubt

My list gets longer everyday but my tried and trues:

1. The Drug War.
2. Wars without end and the subsequent treatment of the veterans.
3. Stupid people.
Basically I really dislike hypocrisy no matter what the issue is. That includes the issue of race.

Government spending ( more than it has) and eminent domain and the taking of private property which the Supreme Court upheld ( wrongfully in my opinion) in Kelo v New London... Wouldn't be the first time SCOTUS was wring.
That's two but so what...............
