Idiots Abound
On FB a few days ago, someone put up this faulty meme suggesting gun buyers be subject to all the regulations to which those seeking abortions are subject. I replied with my opinion that neither should be regulated by the government.
One response was hilarious: "nobody is trying to take away your guns, but abortions are heavily regulated."
Funny thing is, Obama clearly hinted at taking guns away just a few days prior -
We know that other countries, in response to one mass shooting, have been able to craft laws that almost eliminate mass shootings. Friends of ours, allies of ours -- Great Britain, Australia, countries like ours. So we know there are ways to prevent it.
Australia and the UK have had outright bans, to disastrous results. The UK has recently been seen trying to ban knives as people still kill people. Again, it it not the inanimate object.
A few takeaways from the comments:
Liberalism (and abortion support) is a mental illness
Any woman past college age (young and impressionable) who is in favor of abortion is mentally ill. Not surprisingly, the women who were in favor of abortion in this thread were all liberals... also mentally ill. One of them (the one with the above quote) is seen on Facebook making posts about being drunk several times in the same week in some cases.
It's all about control.
They fail to see that the control they hate in one area is the control they want in another area. Of course, they are mentally ill, so they fail to see that.
Well, since they're going down this idiotic path, how about the govt funding ownership of firearms. Especially since keeping and bearing arms IS a right but abortion is not.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I'd rather govt not do anything except exactly that as enumerated in the USC. But we're playing the idiot game today, no place for reason or truth.
