True.

It's practically futile.

In most cases it's no biggie.

However, in some debates the ignorance and denials has lead to...

well..

You know...

It's not that I don't believe you so much.... but I would have to judge that for myself.

I'm actually betting this would be a best seller!

I say go for it!

If only.....

No matter how hard I have tried to do exactly that... well you can see for yourself what I get - instead.

Not to be argumentive... but I have no want for acceptance or for others to 'like' me. If they do they do and if they don't they don't. I strive to be the person that I want to be and I don't much care at all if others accept me or like me.

I like myself (most days) and that's good enough for me.

It's a fair point but I didn't come to this thread expecting to have to defend republicans on the abortion issue.

And no-one else was making the point that I did so...

I had to do it myself.

Conservatives (republicans) see abortions as the molestations / murders of children in the womb. We would like to adopt the attitude of dimz and say "if you don't like the murders and molestations of children in the womb, don't do it." But you're right.

We can't do that.

John Brown was hanged for his acts of terrorism.

His crime was that the raided an armory and tried to wage a civil war to free American slaves.

I don't agree that he should have been executed for that crime.

I only believe in the death penalty if there is a threat to life or civil liberties.

Abortions take the lives of the children killed and abortions (by killing them) deny those children their lives and civil liberties.

But you don't see that as a violation of the child killed at all?

Amazing.

Dude. You have it close.... but there is just too many steps between the first and last frames. Their thought processes are much less linear than that. LOL!
