Hello everyone!

Unfortunately I couldn't take part to the previous part of this great topic (thank you Sergio! ). Anyway my opinion about politics is not so complicated. I can explain it here shortly.
My political ideas born as right-handed. Though I have always been a moderate, in politics just as in life. Nevertheless I'm passing through a time of disgust for politics and most of all for political ideals. Personally I can't help getting angry when I see or hear Italian politicians, both of the right and of the left. I'm beginning to think seriously that ideals cannot fix the problem of millions of people. The facts are what is needed. Here in Italy (like in other countries, I guess) politicians love to talk, and talk, and talk, and catch a lot of money from common people, but the problems grow day by day. The reality is that I'm sick af this all.

I saw a documentary not too long ago that featured him and I must say that I liked the guy. He seems like a person of the people which can't be bad. The Americans don't seem to like him though

here a few months ago a group of friends (4 guys and a 17 year old girl) were out and about when they were held up at knife point by a masked gang. The males were heald down whilst the girl was raped. Worse still, the rapist took the girls mobile phone and phoned her mother to tell her that he'd just raped her daughter. And we are meant to forgive those guys.

The guy ended up with a bullet in each knee

If he's a presedent, I'm Mr.MacPhisto

I think other countries should learn from what happened in Venezuela. It just shows how democracy is vulnerable.

Sorry to hear that.

It irratates me to hear how cruel they can be. But yes, you should forgive him.
Not now when everything is still fresh..it will take time, cause time will give you prespective. Only then you will be able to forgive.
