I look forward to the Apple & Orange salad you're apparently preparing.

Would you have us believe since a man can be prescribed Viagra in private that automobiles shouldn't be required to be registered? That there's actually some relationship between the two?

I certainly hope you are being deliberately obtuse, it's a shame to be born that way.

Abortion is a medical procedure that poses no threat to anyone other than woman undergoing the procedure. There is no need for anyone else to know about it. Guns are lethal weapons that can be used to cause great harm to unlimited others. There is a necessary need to know to whom guns are being sold.

  • This new abortion control bill will establish a 7 day waiting period to obtain the abortion.
  • You cannot have more than 1 abortion per month.
  • You must be 18 years or older to have an abortion.
What are your thoughts?
Right now your idea is at this level:

Improve it until it's simply draconian (like showing mercy to a few pregnant 12 year old rape victims with heart conditions) then I'll begin complaining more specifically.

Hi Burdell. Automobile use is a privilege, not a right.

Right. Abortions aren't lethal at all. I mean their intent isn't to kill a human fetus or anything

I think that your gender negates any opinion you might hold on the subject.

So you put your health access, privacy and confidentiality concerns on the same level as owning a firearm?

Really?

...Except I don't even agree with that when it comes to the second amendment.

Nice try, however.
