Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.

Neutral
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
How would you guarantee Social Security benefits for future generations?
We need to stop, bankrupting Social Security, in order to fund every political program in the sky. We have programs where everyone take something out and a few give back. We have too many young people, we feed every day, not in any program, not giving back to system that feed them.
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
We need to redistribute the budget and hold down the taxes. We need to create a better ecosystem, with proper check and balances.
Under what circumstances should taxpayers help pay off existing student loans?
When students grade reflect the outcome we require of them and they are not financially able to pay their way, we usually step in and help them.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Governments should not discriminate against individuals, organizations or small businesses because of their belief that marriage is only a union of one man and one woman.
Strongly Agree
Religious liberty is at risk in the United States and deserves the highest level of protection in the law.
Strongly Agree
I promise to protect the freedom of Christians to share the Gospel and to practice Biblical principles.
Yes
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
The first amendment to the US Constitution states "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."
HEALTHCARE
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has health insurance.
Agree
I support the elimination of private healthcare insurance.
Strongly Disagree
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
Many of our health care hospital have been turn over to the colleges, which have not really save us any money. Many colleges jobs are over paid buy million of dollars. The Government need to support more faith base hospital and let restriction. ( like forcing abortion upon religious Hospital).
NATIONAL SECURITY
The best way to maintain peace is through a strong military.
Neutral
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of radical Islamic terrorism?
We should Pray, it is the key to the kingdom. We must Read the Bible and practice what we preach. People come to America because they believe it is the greatest country in the world. American is Great because of the message we preach of hope and forgiveness.
IMMIGRATION
I am in favor of construction of a wall and other necessary infrastructure on our border that gives complete control over entering and exiting the United States.
Neutral
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) should be abolished.
Strongly Disagree
State and federal funds should be denied to any public or private entity, including but not limited to sanctuary cities, that are not in compliance with immigration laws.
Agree
Employers should be required to use E-verify to confirm the eligibility of their employees to work in the United States.
Agree
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
I would like to qwuote Alexis De Tocqueville,to express my thoughts on immigrate to America. " I sought for the greatness and genius of America in her commodious harbors and her ample rivers - and it was not there... in her fertile fields and boundless forest and it was not there.. in her rich mines and her vast world commerce- and it was not there... in her democratic Congress and her matchless Constitution - and it was not there. Not until I went into the churches of America and heard her pulpits aflame with righteousness did I understand the secret of her genius and power. America is great because she is good, and if America ever cease to be good, she will cease to be great."
EDUCATION
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Agree
VALUES
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which is necessary for our system of limited government.
Strongly Agree
I support adding sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression as protected classes in non-discrimination laws.
Strongly Disagree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I believe in God the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, and I believe right will always win. Anything that is not right the way God designed it to be, shall suffer illusion of righteousness and can not stand before God. If we do good than good will follow. If we are unrighteous than unrighteousness will follow. God desire Righteousnes rather than sacrifice. If a man,woman, boy, girl or nations sacrifice righteousness for good intention, they will have missed the mark.
ABOUT YOU
When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and immigration, which of the following best describes you overall?
Conservative
Please provide publicly available information validating your answer to the previous question.
You can type Roy Owens from Boston Massachusetts, on any website and you will get a conservative answer about Roy Owens. last, but not least royowensboston.mysite.com
Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.
No, but I am sure all of us are guilty of something.
Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
Where there is a lack of knowledge the people perish. Right will always win. Massachusetts must Legalize Paralegals as officers of the Court just as Washington, California, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico for better community services and Jobs. We need a CEASE FIRE ON OUR COMMUNITY, Cease fire on common sense education for our Youth, Senior’s health care, Homeowners excess taxes, renters from excess rent and a Cease Fire on the poor and people of Color. Our children are our future. They need common sense principles. My Opponents DO NOT support these principles that have made America Great, Biblical Teaching and Prayer in Schools. As a result drugs, STD’S, sex, pornography, abortions and murder have become an epidemic with our youth.
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
Mandatory minimum sentencing should be required and enforced for violent crimes.
Strongly Agree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
Less than 10,000 people die each year from gun and over 400,000 die from medical malpractice approximately 2 Million from TB and approximately 100.000 a year from common colds. Where is the government,the scientist and the media concern for the people. People are more afread of going to the hospital for a check up and a flue shots, than worrying about guns. People just don't trust the messengers.

Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.

Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
The greatest threat we have to domestic security is BABYLONIAN Greed, terrified citizens and Media guides who preach propaganda as news. We have a nation of People who, have little faith in God. We have people who worship Soap Opera Stars and TV TALK SHOW PUPPETS as God spokeperson truth.
