wtf? is the FRC demonstrating at funerals blaming gays for their deaths? saying shit like "GOD HATES YOUR DEAD SON"? get a fucking clue man
How many troops in Afghanistan? When were they promised to be brought home (promised in 2007/2008/2009)?
I support the freedom. Freedom can be abused. It ain't free. Guns aren't made for the purpose of shooting classrooms full of children. Abortions are intended to terminate a life (legitimately so, but it is what it is).
so are you still confused as to why there is a difference? next time the frc plans on protesting funerals with signs that say "god hates your dead children" let me know, and ill owe you a beer
Guns are intended to terminate a life. Abortions aren't made for the sole purpose of killing babies (saving lives too). See? I can play the semantics game too.
It has nothing to do with them being anti-war as you suggest. I am anti-war as are most of my friends and the media doesn't give a shit. It's because they demonstrate openly in person at big media events like soldiers funerals and mass murders. They do this because they know that our media celebrates tragedies and will be there in full force. If the media wasn't already there profiteering off people's sorrow we'd never have heard of these wing-nuts. They could just demonstrate in front of your house but nobody would broadcast it. The media never calls out large religious groups for their hate because the media is largely owned by these groups and/or their supporters (mostly large corporate advertisers). No news network would survive a battle with the well-known hate group The Family Research Council as they are too well connected.
Not very well. Guns have saved far more lives (millions upon millions through subsistence hunting and self-defense) than abortions (far less than 1%), usually without killing any human beings. Abortions are most often done simply to avoid the inconvenience of raising an unwanted child. Abortions always kill human beings.
They spend millions every year bribing politicos to undermine the Constitution with the exact same goal in mind. The fact they lack the stones to stand up publicly and state their opinion makes them more insidious than the Westboro nuts. http://www.frc.org/human-sexuality#homosexuality
Spader's carved out a niche (Crash reference) as the go-to actor for creepy sexual vibes but he's been in a lot of good stuff and doesn't only play that kind of character. I think he was just in Lincoln.
Some of us are capable of grasping the differences between Afghanistan (arguably justified) and Iraq (totally arbitrary).
I was convinced by the democrats who ranted about the dangers Saddam represented to us. http://www.snopes.com/politics/war/wmdquotes.asp
