As a general ruWhat is with this view that men are just inherently evil and hyperviolent? How blatantly insulting and degrading! If someone were to make a similar comment with the roles reversed, every feminist here would be pouncing like a Mountain Lion, showering every term from chauvinist to Neanderthal like a hard rain.

I don't even know what to phrase here. I am so taken aback by this my brain won't work.
It was just a thought!

To all those asking for proof of my claim, the proof is in the statistics. Crime is at its lowest point ever among youth and one thing that is definitely different about Generation Y is that a HUGE chunk of us were raised by our mothers. No other generation has experienced that.

Tongue in cheek.

Most gun crimes are committed by people who obtained their guns illegally.

Actually, studies have shown that single-mother households are more likely to produce criminals.

Then why is crime so low today? No one is giving any explanations except for me. Conservatives don't want to face the truth. That mother's raise less violent children and abortion lowers crime a generation after becoming available on demand.

Worst. Argument. Ever.

besides the abortion part. Single parent homes directly correlate with crime.

Some possible reasons for a reduction in crime
1. Abortion
2. Increase in CCW
3. Longer prison sentences including 3 strikes
4. Stickler enforcement of petty crimes to prevent petty criminals from escalating
5. Better health care (less people die when stabbed, so murder rate lowers)

I'm not a conservative, but it seems like liberals can't face the facts. That article sounds like propaganda.

My friend you have seen the emperor, he wears no clothes. Thats all liberalism is, use emotions to deal with problems, not logic, reason, facts, reality, or common sense

Reality is whatever refuses to go away when you stop believing in it Philip K. Dick
