The “Pro-Life” crew here has been pretty quiet about the mass murders this weekend…

I don’t expect much from people who think pregnancy as a punishment for sex is a good thing for anyone.

They care about punishing women, otherwise, why not go after men that masturbate and or get vasectomies

But you know what they have been loud about? Making sure “illegal” children don’t get any formula during the shortage. Because you know, embryos matter, but live children? Not so much, especially if they don’t have a US passport. Starve away!

Why don’t you start with Hobbes - leviathan (fear of a violent death in the state of nature and it’s relationship to civil society) - then Locke - social contract theory - then Machiavelli - the Prince. Brush up on Plato - allegory of the cave. Through in some Rousseau and of course Marx and Engels - communist manifesto - move along to Nietzsche and Solzhenitsyn to top it off. Then we can talk news.

I appreciate this nuance in views.

A q: Are you a single issue voter on the abortion issue? Which issue do you prioritize while voting?

This is yet another time to loudly urge anti-racist policies. Genuine pro-lifers in the literal sense do so. Those who use the term disingenuously to punish others …well their silence as a collective is, once again, telling.

Murder is a crime. What reaction were you expecting? That people advocate for it to be more of a crime?

I’m advocating for the PREVENTION of mass murder by all means necessary. Stopping domestic terrorism groups and rhetoric, gun control, criminalizing threats of violence, combatting white supremacy and anti-Semitism.. not just waiting for mass shootings and say “eh, they’ll go to jail, nothing more to do here!”

There’s been 33 mass shootings in MAY. Just MAY 2022.

Look, I’m pro-choice and don’t believe abortion is murder, but for those who do believe abortion is murder, mass shootings and abortion aren’t remotely on the same level of severity. There are 800K+ abortions *per year* in the US. There were 1500 mass shootings in the US *over a decade*.

Mass shootings don’t even come close to being a leading cause of mortality or even gun crime mortality in the US. So I don’t think that a pro-life person has to have opposition to mass shootings as a key focus of their personal or political agenda in order to be credible.

The abortion debate begins and ends on the question of whether abortion is murder, so we should focus our attention on the argument there.

Actually since 2020, death by firearm became the NUMBER ONE cause of death for youth in this country. So it is THE leading cause of mortality now for youth

Hmm…could we maybe start with banning military assault rifles & a thorough background check system?

From 22-27 I dated a guy who worked all the time with the hope we would get married. Lots of time spent alone since he was never around on trips and so called vacations.
