3.28 - Assisted Suicide

I think it should be legal. If people can take medicine, choosing to prolong their life I think it makes sense people should be able to choose to end theirs, at least under the right circumstances. If someone knows they are going to die soon, and there is nothing they can do about it, I don't see why they shouldn't have the option to die sooner, painlessly and on their terms.

3.26 - Saving Besties

I would do almost anything for my best friend. I don't know what I wouldn't do, but I hope the situation never arises where I won't do something for them.

3.22 - Friends

I think a good friend is someone you can trust, that trusts you. Friendship is created through mutual trust and interests, and good friends are people who like each other for who they are and what they do.

3.20 - Funding for PB

I think if the public broadcasting network is only being funded 17.4% by the state, it can afford to have that amount taken away. It wouldn't harm the network too terribly, and the money could be put toward something more important than television.

3.16 - Pink Slime

I don't think it should be banned, if federal regulators say it meets regulations, but I think meat containing the "pink slime" should be clearly labeled so, so that schools and stores, and buyers, can decide whether or not they want to buy it.

3.14 - 1st Amendment

I'm not sure if I agree. I think that while he should be allowed to state his opinions, if they offend enough people he should be taken off the air.

3.12 - NFL Bounties

I don't think they should be able to put bounties on injuries they inflict. It seems like cheating to me, and it just creates an incentive to injure other players, which creates an unfair advantage.

3.7 - Sex Abuse Limitations

I think Maine should definitely extend the limitations on these cases. Sex abuse is very serious, and should be handled as a serious crime that can be punished for whenever the truth comes out.

3.5 - Teacher Joke?

I think both. People are extremely sensitive these days, but the teacher was in the wrong to say what he did. From what I read, the wording he used seemed more threatening than something that could easily be taken jokingly. I think it should be looked into, but with an unbiased eye, so no conclusions would be made without knowing all the facts.
