• "Pro-Life"

    From Jeff Thiele@1:387/26 to All on Tuesday, May 24, 2022 22:29:17
    18 elementary school students and one teacher died today in a mass shooting
    in Uvalde, Texas.

    Elementary school students. The school in question served children in grades 2-4. That translates to 18 victims between 7 and 10 years old.

    Texas Governor Greg Abbott called this "a horrific tragedy."

    The same Governor Greg Abbott tweeted the following on October 28, 2015:
    "I'm EMBARRASSED: Texas #2 in nation for new gun purchases, behind CALIFORNIA. Let's pick up the pace Texas."

    If the life of an unformed fetus is more important than a woman's sovereignty over her own body, how is a single child's life less important that easy
    access to firearms for everyone? If a woman can be prevented from buying a
    pill specifically designed to terminate a life, why is virtually anyone
    allowed to buy a "tool" specifically designed to do exactly the same?

    It's because you're afraid of tyrants, isn't it? But then again, you wouldn't know a would-be tyrant if he incited an insurrection to steal an election
    right in front of you.

    Jeff.

    Hello Jeff,

    18 elementary school students and one teacher died today in a mass shooting
    in Uvalde, Texas.

    Elementary school students. The school in question served children in grades
    2-4. That translates to 18 victims between 7 and 10 years old.

    Texas Governor Greg Abbott called this "a horrific tragedy."

    Let's pick up the pace Texas."

    The USA has 42% of all the guns in the world. The USA has 4.5% of
    all the people in the world. With each passing year, the rate of mass
    shootings (four people or more) has continued to spiral upward.

    At some point, there will no longer be enough children to kill for
    serial killers to kill. In which case, gun manufacterers will go out
    of business since they will no longer be able to sell their products.

    If the life of an unformed fetus is more important than a woman's sovereignty
    over her own body, how is a single child's life less important that easy access to firearms for everyone? If a woman can be prevented from buying a pill specifically designed to terminate a life, why is virtually anyone allowed to buy a "tool" specifically designed to do exactly the same?

    Oh, don't be silly. Gotta be pro-active. Allow the unborn to defend
    themselves by allowing them to buy all the guns they want. No more
    waiting until age 18 for rifles/semiautomatics and age 21 for handguns.
    Let 'em buy all they want while still in their mother's womb. That'll
    teach those serial killers a lesson!

    It's because you're afraid of tyrants, isn't it? But then again, you wouldn't
    know a would-be tyrant if he incited an insurrection to steal an election right in front of you.

    The governor of Texas is confined to a wheelchair. Just like that
    youngster from North Carolina who lost his bid to a second term in
    Congress (even though he had invited others to join him at orgies).

    But hey. Not to worry. O'Rourke will take care of Texas very soon.

    Maybe they'll turn on each other?

    Follow the money. Nothing is more important than remaining in power
    and using that power to amass wealth and more power.
