A country in shambles, under GOP rule

Efforts to blame Democrats for the country's deep woes assume deep stupidity on the part of the glorified Regular Voter.

    Now you're going to get racist on me as well? Sheesh. -- Retzilian

    What the fuck is that supposed to mean? I can tell you have trouble following an argument without twisting the other fellow's words to suit your preconceived purposes; but racist? Fuck girl, all races have babies. (tis the nature of things)

    While I am typing, I might as well ask: why not infanticide? If you can kill a baby that just happens to still be inside, why not one that is outside. After all, it is just a few feet away most of the time. Say up until the kid can fend for itself. Its your body after all; why be saddled with a toddler if it is not convenient?

    The answer? Because: killing is never the answer. We will never see eye to eye because you don't think the girl should practice birth control. Boys should also, but as has been pointed out here on this forum they are not the ones getting pregnant and killing helpless humans.

    Only in the most clear cases of the health of the mother should abortion be considered. Even then, most often the mother should give up her life for the child. That is the morality of courage and honor.
