OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Strongly Agree
I will not violate anyones right to privacy to do so.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
ECONOMY
I support using taxpayer funds to lobby the state legislature and/or U.S. Congress.
Strongly Disagree
It is the responsibility of city government to provide subsidized housing at taxpayer expense.
Strongly Disagree
Property taxes should be abolished.
Disagree
It needs to be reduced, its not realistic to eliminate it completely.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Government should not discriminate against individuals, organizations, or business owners who affirm marriage as between 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
IMMIGRATION
City officials should have the right to proclaim their city a sanctuary city for illegal aliens.
Strongly Disagree
One of the few areas the federal government is 100% responsible is national security and the city should not interfere.
VALUES
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
One of my most prized positions is a 5th edition copy of The Second Treatise of Government by John Locked printed in 1764. In it he says humans are born with natural rights given by God and that the government should protect those rights not take them away.
Children have the right to be protected from sexually explicit materials in publicly funded libraries, including school libraries.
Strongly Agree
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
Thats just retarded.
All filings by candidates for municipal office, including ballot application and campaign finance reports, should be available for public online access on the city website within 24 hours of filing deadline.
Strongly Agree
Ballot measures which include bond issues should fully disclose both the potential tax rate increase and actual monetary increase for the average single family residence.
Strongly Agree
EQUALITY
Biological males should not be allowed to participate in women's sports or occupy biological women's spaces whether it be bathrooms, locker rooms, sorority houses, women's shelters, or prison.
Strongly Agree
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) instruction should be required for all city employees.
Strongly Disagree
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Taxpayers should subsidize green initiatives such as electric vehicle charging stations.
Strongly Disagree
ABOUT YOU
Have you ever been penalized for sexual misconduct in either civil or criminal court? If so, please explain.
No
Have you ever been convicted of a felony? If so, please explain.
No
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
To protect individual liberty.
Candidates and officeholders should be required to disclose all business investments and real estate, whether in the city or in an area currently proposed for annexation.
Strongly Agree
It’s ridiculous that this isnt already a requirement.
Please list your business investments and/or real estate, whether within the city or in an area currently proposed for annexation.
My clinic is in Frisco.
When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to immigration and religious liberty, which of the following best describes you overall?
Conservative
I lean libertarian
I voted in these primaries and general elections:
2016 Republican Primary 2016 General Election 2018 General Election 2020 Democratic Primary 2020 General Election 2022 Republican Primary 2022 General Election
I voted in Democratic primaries because I wanted to stop Clinton and Biden. Trump had already wrapped up the GOP primary. I supported Rand Paul in the 2016 GOP primary and Vivek in the 2024 primary. Ended up voting for Trump in the general.
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
I support redirecting funds from police departments to community programs.
Strongly Disagree
Safety is my top priority.
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
Restricting the government from compiling a list of gun owners would be a great step towards public safety. We need to start questioning what restrictions should be on the government.
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES
I support the legalization of recreational marijuana.
Agree
Only if its done in their home or private land and the public cant smell it. If we can smell it then they should be jailed, its really assault at this point. At least if someone is dressed indecent we can look away, but when you smell this nasty crap you cant smell away.
LOCAL
I support annual financial audits of every city department by an independent, third party auditor.
Strongly Agree
Please list up to three issues or projects that you think need the most attention.
Infrastructure, Human Resources, public safety vehicles
