I don't freakin' believe this-- I came out right over there by Ghandi. I accept where that puts me on the libertarian/authoritarian scale, and also on the socialist/capitalist scale. But I'm no way as spiritualist as he was, and no way as pacifist.

Interesting... almost pegged to the left, and halfway to libertarianism ( a little farther than Ghandi).

I agree with rappy and Chris on the hate crimes thing. Does it really matter that my brains get beaten in because I'm a Jew, or because you're crazy... or both? Dead is dead.
As far as I'm concerned, the only reason to look at motivation is to figure out what it will take... if anything... to keep the crime from being repeated. A crazy person needs meds, a brain-damaged person might need meds and therapy, a PTSD person (which prolly describes many of our inner city residents) need something else, and a person who has been programmed to be hate-filled needs deprogramming.

Necroposting!
Because this is still relevant, needs saying because it avoid arguments if you already know where someone is coming from.
Center, libertarian/anarchist. Mix of left and right depending on the issue, but never far to one side. In the middle of a triangle of Frem, Geezer and Chrisisall, right next to CTS, but I find myself in agreement with all of y'all at some point or another. And I'd vote for you over what we actually have running.
Yeah, I didn't do this to bring you in Chris, just to get our bearings again.

Economic Left/Right: -1.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.41
I would have thought myself much more Libertarian and much more to the right on economic issues.
Do Right, Be Right. :)

Almost midpoint in the lefty-libertarian square, but a little further to the left.
