Domestic Policy › Gun Control

BF>BF Personal answerPersonally I don't agree with the idea of more than two genders, but I would rather have anti-discriminatory laws for people who feel that way instead of treating them like their sin is worse than everyone else's. |
Education › School Reopenings
BF>BF Personal answerCurrently my school district is open for in-person learning, but our cases have been increasing. I think things were better when we were allowed to choose between online and in-person learning. However, I don't know if this would be the right decision for all of the country's K-12. |

the Economy › Minimum Wage
BF>BF Personal answerYes, and make it a living wage and adjust it every year according to inflation. |

BF>BF Personal answerYes, but they need to be locked in a box/the teacher's desk, and only given to teachers who have passed a psychological test and gun training. There should be a certain amount of teachers who have a gun sprinkled down each hallway, so that no matter where the threat is, somebody has a weapon to defend the students. |
the Environment › Climate Change
BF>BF Personal answerYes, and provide more incentives for alternative energy production |

Foreign Policy › Mandatory Military Service
BF>BF Personal answerNo, service should be a choice instead of an obligation |
Social › Racial Sensitivity Training
BF>BF Personal answerNo, just ensure there are clear guidelines, action, and accountability for acts of discrimination |

Education › Student Loans
BF>BF Personal answerYes |

BF>BF Personal answerYes, as long as it is safe for them to return to their country |
Healthcare › Marijuana
BF>BF Personal answerYes, and legalize, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it |
Social › Hate Speech
BF>BF Personal answerNo, and increase penalties for hate speech |
Social › Confederate Flag
BF>BF Personal answerIf it's at a museum or other form of historic display, it should be allowed. But if the flag is being displayed for the purpose of promoting the confederate ideals, it should be considered hate speech. |
Social › Government Mandates
BF>BF Personal answerYes, except for religious organizations and charities that oppose the use of contraception |

BF>BF Personal answerYes, as long as the losing party pays all legal fees, it’s our constitutional right to sue anyone for any reason |
Crime › Defunding the Police
BF>BF Personal answerYes, but at the same time we should not fully abolish the police. We just need to train officers to deal with situations in a more constructive way. Not every situation should end in violence, and there needs to be protocol for dealing with the mentally ill. |
