Rapist Caught after 35 Years

Not too long ago rapist, Gary Irving, was caught living a quiet lifestyle in Gorham, Maine after 35 years on the run. Gary had changed his name from Gary to Gregg while keeping his last name Irving. He was convicted of rapping three young woman in the year of 1978 the judge gave Irving one weekend before his charge. "Which is ironic..if you are found guilty and could possibly face life in prison the most obvious thing to do is run and not come back" said many outsiders and reporters.

 When law enforcers searched Irving's house they found several handguns and long guns that were not legally owned. Irving will also face that charge in court. Since he fled, Irving's profile has been featured on the TV shows "America's Most Wanted," "Unsolved Mysteries" and "Real Stories of the Highway Patrol," according to the Most Wanted poster. Since then Irving's lawyer refuses to give out any information until after Gary's hearing.

Gay Marriage

Lately there has been some EXTREME debates on the issue of gay marriage. Lots people agree and disagree with the matter. MY opinion with the issue is that if a person wants to be married then let them be! If someone told us we couldn't be with our partner we wouldn't like it. So why shouldn't they be allowed to do so? 

My take on the issue is, in the United states we have many different freedoms and obligations; such as freedom of speech. freedom of religion, and so on. Many people say no to gay marriage because of their religion but what if they don't have the same religion as us and they don't believe in that. Last time I checked EVERYONE in the United States is supposed to have freedom of religion so that's not a valid response to why gay marriage should not be allowed. I haven't heard not one good explanation as to why it should not be allowed. If you don't agree with my statement then that's fine. I'm just throwing my 2 cents out there.
