For this I guess there are two camps of pro lifers. The absolutists are against condoms, birth control of any sort, and all abortions no matter what. Others believe it is wrong to do anything after sperm hits ovum. For them, the pill is ok, condoms are fine, but the morning after pill and anything else destroying a fetus is unacceptable. It's not hypocritical, it's a matter of where you draw the line. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

This is called psycological warfare, and it protects you to this very day. It is also very effective when practiced properly. These men were going to be executed one way or the other.

Bill, I love it when you make it easy for me. Your proposed law is actually funny. Anyone convicted of any felony is barred from ever owning a firearm, or employing a bodyguard who carries a firearm (apparently Ted Kennedy gets to be the exception to the law, again). Similarly, anyone convicted of a crime of violence, even a misdemeanor, is barred from owning a firearm. As I've mentioned before, the Supreme Court found that requiring felons to register their guns is unconstitutional as a violation of the right against self incrimination. By SCUS definition, registration can only affect law abiding citizens. The only people left open to prosecution are people with a few speeding tickets (those not barred from owning firearms). This is why understanding the laws in place is required before discussing gun legislation (anyone claiming machine guns are covered by the fading assault weapons ban fails that test miserably). Everything you can do wrong with a gun is already illegal. Why pass more gun laws? I really can't imagine a good parallel here. We're talking about a tool versus a pregnant mother. Hard to draw connections. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

So according to you it's ok to kill the child at 8 months and 29 days, as long as it hasn't been delivered? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Does that mean you're going to head out to Montana and join the tax protestors? By your logic, all taxes are too dangerous to allow. I happen to be more worried about people than media corporations. Or are you going to argue for me that all gun laws anywhere are wrong and a burden to the right to keep and bear arms, and is too open to abuse by the government? No double standards, pick one or the other. Or do you like one part of the bill of rights more than another? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

What then? A lot more babies get a chance at life. It's called personal responsibility. To immitate your snide remarks, don't do the crime if you can't do the time. Oh, there's a horrible side effect, one less group of lobbyists in DC. Prevention of life, yeah, that's a worthwhile goal (it might help to include the "an ounce of" in that one). Maybe that means the system is broken, not the children that haven't had a shot yet. And this is worse than abortion how? You undermine your own argument by pointing out better alternatives. Again, undermining your own argument. What is that quote about giving someone enough rope.... And this is detrimental to society because...? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

They rarely if ever give coverage to "plots" foiled here in the US. You've heard about the attacks that happened here. Do you think those are the only ones that were ever attempted, or do you think many were stopped? If you think many attacks were thwarted, have you heard about any of them? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Have you heard any reports of gencide in the streets? No? Good, neither have the rest of us. Do you think that would last if we pulled out right now? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Riiiiight, no possibility that the US public didn't want to fight a foreign war. FDR may have been chomping at the bit to jump in bed with Churchill and Stalin, but most of the country was no interested until we were attacked. Yeah, you were doing so well without us. How do you think you would have done without the US selling you the instruments of war? Oh, and I really appreciate you having my grandfather's rifle melted down rather than returning it to it's rightful owner. See if I ever send you something to help. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

UK laws look like garbage in any fair comparison. US intelligence organizations are busy looking outside the country, and at outside threats that have gotten in. Courts have ruled against use of extraordinary technology used without a warrant. Well, it might have something to do with the fact that we don't have cameras on every corner. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

I call bullshit. Registration is the third largest anti-gun step a legislature can take. (banning guns outright being the biggest, and outlawing their use being second). We've heard that one before, from London, from Sydney, from Albany, from Sacramento (I think I got those capitals right) and many other governments. Registration has led to confiscation in every instance that it has been instituted. Yes, I just said every single one. Wrong, it hurts them by putting them in front of the firing squad. It just doesn't pull the trigger. Wasn't it you who reminded us that governments always expand their power as far as possible? You don't think some bureaucrat would just at the chance to yell "FIRE!!!"? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

The same could be said for some anti-gun laws, couldn't it? You're going to have draw the parallel for me on this one, I don't see it. How can a law help the cause of anti-gunners but not be overtly anti-gun? From the law, not included are: abortions, any treating doctors, and the mother-to-be witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

To quote John for you from the very first post. So obviously, they are not doing the same thing in Oregon. Pay attention. Or do you not see a difference between keeping something behind the counter and Oklahoma requiring photo ID and logging signatures?

Don't waste the jump ticket, the movie isn't worth it. However, the scene you described goes down in the movie, different setting (subway). Gang harasses skinny guy. Skinny guy pulls knife. Gang laughs at skinny guy and pull handguns. The other thirty people in the car pull handguns and point them at gang thugs. Even granny.

So you don't see a distinction between sperm and a fetus? One is a new life, the other is half the required DNA. I'm sure some of the ayes were pro lifers. Does that mean their only possible motivation was to undermine Roe v Wade? They couldn't have actually been voting their conscience on this one? Does that make Tom Daschle a hard core NRA lackey for supporting the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
