Who has switched positions on volatile issues?

There is a myth (or is it a truth?) that anyone who holds a firm, dedicated position on a moral issue was simply raised by their family or cultural circle to believe in their opinion.

What I want to know is: who has done a complete 180 (i.e. changed their mind completely) between now and when they were born on any of the follwing issues: abortion, gay marriage, the death penalty, marijuana legalization, gun control, the Iraq war, globalization, or environmental conservation.

It doesn't matter if you went from a liberal to conservative position or vice versa. Just tell us the issue on which you switched sides as TELL US WHY so that your answer is interesting.

I went from being against the death penalty to being for it.
After a friend was murdered.
I think people change their minds about issues when it personally affects them.

No one who was born after the Iraqi war can answer this!

And be careful, everyone changes their minds sometimes, however not for convenience!

approximately once a month. It depends entirely on the evidence - I used to think that invading Iraq was justified - how wrong I was.
