Whatever you say, I disagree and it was not meant as a personal attack. If you want to report me, then just do it and stop taking up space on the forum talking about it.

You are right--not only are animals culled for being deemed unfit, but humans also sometimes do that.

I'd say wear a condom or if one is somehow unable to do that, then if you have a baby, put it up for adoption, give it a good home. But some folks like to cull the herd or just don't feel like letting a baby live, due to, well, the moment's so gone.

I'm glad my wife's bio mom didn't decided to have her sucked out and tossed into a dumpster. She was adopted out, wound up in a great home, etc. So was her brother. So was my dad. And maybe people would stop going to china to purchase kids if more kiddies in this country, if they can't be responsible after they take their clothes off, can at least be responsible with the life they created and let it live, give it to a good home.

Now that's doing "the right thing"....for all the right reasons.

Again, that is completely not true and is an offensive thing to accuse people of. As I stated before, conservatives donate a lot to assorted charities and if we hated poor people, why would we do that?

If you really want to get on the subject of being derogatory, calling people "repugs" and "*******s" is also not so nice.

Everyone needs to put their big girl/boy undies on and stop being petty. Stick with the topic and we'll all be fine.

maybe the children/women that go to margaret sanger's planned parenthood are too stupid to figure out where they sell condoms?

Wait, they don't have to even go to any planned parenthood eugenics clinic--illinois gives them direct access to your children in the government union schools down there. Probably lots of other places let them set up shop in schools too.

Okay.

There is a difference between saying a group of people don't like something, and picking on a specific member of City Data and attacking them because you don't like what they are saying.

Calling someone stupid is a personal attack. This isn't something you can not believe in like Santa.

Charities to support their agenda.

Yes. Do so.

Ugh, that has nothing to do with anything. What I said was basic common sense. Now, leave it alone or I will start reporting you for being off topic.

Nothing in this world is truly free.
Cheaper'n unwanted babies I reckon.

What's that old saying...ounce of prevention, pound of something? Yeah.

Regardless of how anyone feels about birth control, the bottom line is hard to argue with. Pills and condoms are cheap. Babies? No.

Charities to support their agenda.

Yes. Do so.
#1 I never called you stupid. If you want to insert words where there aren't any, that's on you.

#2 I did not "pick on" you, nor did I "attack" you. I completely disproved your little theory that conservatives hate poor people. IMO, that makes you look stupid. That is not picking on you. If you honestly feel that way, I think you need to grow some thicker skin. How about every time I get called a bigot b/c I don't support gay marriage, or when I get called a racist b/c I disagree with Obama's policies? Do you think I report that every time it's said? No, b/c I'm an adult and I can deal with whatever people want to say about me. To be honest, everyone could stand to be nicer on this forum and stop with the name-calling. But again, I NEVER called you stupid.

MOVING ON

#3 The charities support their cause, sure, why would they donate to a cause they don't support? If you think their agenda is to hurt poor people, but yet many of their donations go to poor people...that makes NO sense.

Yes you did.

Maybe in your mind, but you also have violated City Data's T.O.S. You talk a lot, but you don't believe what you say about it.

Yeah, you don't make sense.
