• Muslim Kids

    From Lee Lofaso@2:203/2 to All on Sat May 11 22:14:17 2019
    Hello Everybody,

    Everybody loves children. Right?
    Especially Muslim children. Right?
    Here are Muslim children.
    All singing the same old song.
    In the City of Brotherly Love - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania USA

    Truly a sight to behold, isn't it?
    Now think of what Muslim children in Iran look like.
    And what Muslim children in Palestine look like.
    And what Muslim children everywhere else look like.

    What should we teach the children to sing next?

    This facility should be immediately shutdown and demolished.
    Next the so called American-Muslim society should be eliminated.

    Why?
    These two cultures; Christians and Muslims are in serious conflict with one another and have been for hundreds of years. To suggest otherwise is being extremely naive.

    What escaped to the media and to the world of children singing about chopping off heads; is really who they are and it is what they believe.

    They want to be intolerant and have this ideology of which supports this disgusting action and belief?

    Fine... then they will learn what the true meaning of the word means, to be intolerant. There must be NO tolerance to allow this disease to continue to exist within the United States of America.

    I do not need to be a member the Klan to know that I am right about
    everything that I indicated previously.

    I have no problem with anyone leaving here or even next to me if they want to live here in peace, but the adults that put this together knew what they were doing.

    You have to appreciate that not everyone has been indoctrinated in the "American Way", some of us see the world a little differently to many USAmericans.

    Hello Greg,

    Everybody loves children. Right?
    Especially Muslim children. Right?
    Here are Muslim children.
    All singing the same old song.
    In the City of Brotherly Love - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania USA

    Truly a sight to behold, isn't it?

    This facility should be immediately shutdown and demolished.
    Next the so called American-Muslim society should be eliminated.

    Islam means "peace and submission to Allah". Those who refuse
    get what they deserve. According to their holy book.

    Why?

    The twisted mentality of a small handful of people does not mean
    that all Muslims have the same "off with their heads" mentality.
    Remember, these are small children who have been taught to hate.
    Taught to hate by grown adults who should know better.

    These two cultures; Christians and Muslims are in serious conflict with
    one
    another and have been for hundreds of years. To suggest otherwise is
    being
    extremely naive.

    Islam is anti-war and anti-violence.
    Christianity is anti-war and anti-violence.
    Judaism is anti-war and anti-violence.

    Or so it is claimed by adherents of those three faiths.

    If one is anti-violence, let him or her condemn *all* acts of violence. Otherwise, that person is nothing but a hypocrite. Regardless of what
    faith he/she claims to be.

    If one is anti-war, let him or her condemn *all* wars. Let him/her
    declare war an anathema that should be cleansed from the face of this
    planet. Otherwise, that person is nothing but a hypocrite. Regardless
    of what faith he/she claims to be.

    To teach little children to hate their neighbor is anti-Christian,
    anti-Muslim, and anti-Jewish. So what does that make those who teach
    such hatred?

    What escaped to the media and to the world of children singing about chopping off heads; is really who they are and it is what they believe.

    What about white nationalist extremists who chant Nazi slogans?
    What do you think they teach their children?

    They want to be intolerant and have this ideology of which supports this disgusting action and belief?

    We have all seen video of neo-Nazis in Charlottesville, Virginia
    chanting their slogans and lighting torches. Including one of them
    who plowed his car into a crowd of innocent people, injuring dozens
    and killing one.

    Fine... then they will learn what the true meaning of the word means, to
    be
    intolerant. There must be NO tolerance to allow this disease to continue
    to
    exist within the United States of America.

    Who is going to stop them? Rather than chastise, Donald Trump eggs
    them on at his rallies. During a rally in Florida after saying a few
    words about illegal immigrants crossing the border, someone in the
    audience shouted "Shoot them!" What did the president do? Nothing.
    As if it was fine for people to take the law into their own hands
    and start shooting immigrants just because they can.

    How is that any different than little children singing about
    chopping the heads off those who are not Muslim?

    Such a mind set would make them "narrow minded bigots". Not all Muslims are of the zealous head chopping frame of mind, and more than all Christians in USA are of the KKK mindset.

    A Christian terrorist shot up a bunch of Republicans who were

    The congressman who survived having been shot says he is still
    trying to forgive the guy who who did it.

    A Christian terrorist plowed his car into a crowd in Charlottesville,
    Virginia, injuring dozens of people and killing one woman. The woman's
    mother says it is impossible for her to forgive the guy who did it.

    A Christian terrorist who was white shot a bunch of black folks dead
    inside a church in South Carolina. None of the black folks were given
    a chance to forgive him for his crimes.

    Many Christian terrorists have shot abortion doctors dead ...

    Every time that I have became aware or learned about someone who had their
    head chopped off it has been by acts of terror by Muslims or someone who
    joined up with the Islamic faith and has become radicalized.

    This just doesnot happen in modern times with folks who fellow
    Christianity to any degree.

    There is nothing wrong with being proud of my Christian Values.

    Thinking the way I do, does not make me a Klansman, a white supremacist or a even a Nazi. The truth the matter is that I am not going to change your mind, even though your backwards and opinionated, you have that right.

    Just know that this has nothing to do with me.

    Sure there are some nut cases out there with guns, does that mean that we outlaw the gun, even I believe in Gun Control - I use both hands.

    If these people who feel so strongly about their religion and their
    connection to allah, and want to kill the non-believers & can not remain peaceful then the United States of America may not the best choice for a destination, I have no plans at any such time, in becoming being submissive
    in my beliefs.

    That does not stop me from making an observation. 'Freedom of speech" is not
    your exclusive realm.

    Over here, many people - especially those of the leftist persuasion - believe in freedom for MY speech and will shout down anyone who tries to express a different opinion. They've been doing that here for well over half a century

    Actually, Australians have no "right to free speech", and as I'm only a guest in this country I guess I have even less "rights".

    I agree that many (and not just "leftists") consider freedom of speech to only include THEIR opinions and no-one else may express a contrary opinion.

    I used "narrow minded bigots" in an earlier message - I reference that expression again.

    It seems to me that the fire-and-brimstone style of Christian preaching is still going strong, especially in the former slave states of the USA.

    This is for instance how the Westboro Baptist Church, Topeka, Kansas showed their Christian love for some of those who died in the 2004 Tsunami in south-east Asia. Is that modern enough times for you?

    You can say that they are peaceful and benevolent all you want, but the
    Quran the go to book that is at the focal point of the ideology is everything but peaceful and benevolent.

    In fact...
    The Quran contains at least 109 verses that speak of war with nonbelievers, usually on the basis of their status as non-Muslims. Some are quite graphic, with commands to chop off heads and fingers and kill infidels wherever they
    may be hiding. Muslims who do not join the fight are called 'hypocrites' and warned that Allah will send them to Hell if they do not join the slaughter.

    Nor do our people become radicalized and commit heinous crimes in the name of Christ.

    Sure there are some nut cases out there with guns, does that mean that we outlaw the gun, even I believe in Gun Control - I use both hands.

    I do not now, nor ever have had the desire to possess a gun. I do not hunt for food so cannot perceive a need.

    There are other uses for guns. Here are a couple:

    1. Sport/target shooting. Challenging and fun.

    2. Home/personal defense. Here's a scenario for you - you're home asleep at 3:00AM, and are awoken by a noise. Turns out it's a couple of thugs breaking into your house to steal your property and/or rape/kill your wife and teenage daughter. They're crazed out on drugs and have no fear, and either have guns or some other weapon of deadly force like a club or knife. They come at you with clear intentions to kill you. What are you gonna do? Call the police? Yell and scream for help? What will either of those actions get you? That's right...... dead.
    For someone (like me) who has a loaded pistol in my nightstand, the outcome will likely be two dead thugs, and my family and property safe.

    How can any sane person argue that that is not a valid need/use for a gun? Are
    you willing to give up your life, or your family's lives, because you don't "feel a need" to have a gun?

    Let's say we stayed out of it, just let the Europeans have it.

    Exactly what does this term "liberated" mean to you? From the way you use it it appears to differ from what I understand.

    Germany would of grown to a more massive size and would have encompassed
    most
    of Europe today. Adolf Hitler's grand plans for the 'supercapital' of the Third Reich, which he intended to rename Germania, are detailed in a new exhibition.

    USA did NOT bring down Hitler's Germany.

    Staged in a vast Nazi bunker, 'The Myth of Germania: Vision and Crimes' features the 'Hall of the People' which was to be twice the size of St Peter's Basilica in Rome with room for 180,000 people.

    As opposed to the uberlords of USA's plan for the world and its people? The USAmericans even seem to think they are "the chosen people" living in "the greatest nation on earth".

    There are other uses for guns. Here are a couple:

    Shooting at innocent chunks of clay hurled into the air is challenging and fun? How about you are the chunks of clay and see how challenging and fun that it.

    breaking
    into your house to steal your property and/or rape/kill your wife and

    You live in fear of being attacked by armed intruders?

    How can any sane person argue that that is not a valid need/use for a
    gun? Are you willing to give up your life, or your family's lives,
    because you don't
    "feel a need" to have a gun?

    I see the risk of that happening as so slim that I can honestly say "I do not feel the need to possess a firearm to defend myself from armed attackers".

    It would appear that a very large percentage of Australian residents see it the same way.

    Being overly cynical.. Questioning nearly everything and finding fault and

    True, USA does not have the monopoly on religious nutters but it sure

    I would not consider myself to be a religious nutter, I enjoy life and take pride in my countries achievements and accomplishments, as well as my own.

    I'm a little confused by this, possibly it's a naming/semantics thing... We do

    No guns -- no gun shot killings. The only purpose of a handgun is to kill people. It's as easy as that.

    Sorry to disappoint you, but most Volvo cars are still manufactured at the Torslanda factory, some 5km from my home.

    The Chinese ownership has had very little impact on the Volvo except for a major sales increase in China from Volvo cars manufactured there.

    Sorry to disappoint you, but most Volvo cars are still manufactured at
    the Torslanda factory, some 5km from my home.

    Sorry to correct you but there is not an unsignificant Volvo plant in Gent (Belgium),

    YTD Volvo has manufactured 217,855 cars worldwide. Of these 57,391 were produced in Belgium. That's 26.34% of the world production. Volvo official figures.

    I didn't look up the numbers for the production plant in Shah Alam, Malaysia nor Chengdu and Daqing in China or Berkeley County South Carolina USA. More in China under construction. It means Torslanda is less important than you want to make us believe.

    BTW, I hope you haven't missed that the Chinese cooperation has
    resulted in all Volvo cars after 2022 will be electric? Hybrid as well as all electric.

    There's hardly a market for that. The big problems in mainland Europe being the effort to keep electric cars fueled. The electricity grid is already under continuous pressure and simply is unable to cater for 298.9 million cars in the EU.

    Suck on that Mercedes, good German antiquated and heavily overpriced design, and all your Belgian customer suckers! 8-)

    Whatever turns you on. Over the years my family has traditionally bought Volvo and as the years went on we noticed the steel plates becoming thinner and thinner. Probably those cars are now full of plastic too.

    I wonder how many times your outcome is what really happens as

    and plays with it.

    Anyone who allows the chance of a kid finding/playing with the gun
    should be prosecuted and jailed. In my case, the kids are grown,
    and even yet, the gun is in a locked (biometric quick-open) small
    safe. All the other guns in the house are locked in a large safe
    in another room. Zero chance of anyone accessing any of them
    "accidently".

    I don't believe that is true. Perhaps in the few almost-communist

    You may be confusing the requirements to get a "concealed carry"

    Well, since they are now a Chinese product ...

    Sorry to correct you but there is not an unsignificant Volvo plant in
    Gent (Belgium),

    Last time I looked, that was not located in China and therefore their products can not be labelled as Chinese products as per the above?

    But yes, the Gent factory has always -- throughout various owners -- always been a pride of the Volvo family ever since it's foundation in 1965.

    My BIL worked there for a couple of years assisting in updating the factory in the 1980s so I have some inside information about the Gent plant.

    And yes, I'm well aware of the fact that Volvo has manufacturing plants all around the world -- as has all major car manufacturers.

    What I objected to was that Volvo should be a Chinese product.

    Well, when cooking I never waste such an extraordinary product as Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I only use butter and/or Rape Seed oil for cooking.

    The only time I use my valuable Extra Virgin Oil is when dripping it onto a salad, pasta, pizza, making mayonnaise or something similar. Heating it in a frying pan reduces it to Ordinary Olive Oil.

    In my previous comment I mentioned a few of my uses of this wonderful product that nature has given us.

    I deliberately left out the most important use of mine.

    And here I suggest that all the prudish US readers skip to the next message, because this is about sex, something that you obviously does not want to read or hear about -- unless it involves a lot of violence.

    My wife and I first came in contact with the use of EVOO in our bedroom some 30 years ago. After that first encounter, she always kept a small bottle of EVOO handy in our bedroom.

    Many seriously erotic encounters later I still remember every one of them. I remember the massage I gave her with the EVOO, I remember the poignant taste of her salty sweat in combination with the fantastic olive oil. All over her body.

    And I still miss her like hell, more than three years after her untimely demise... :(

    If you really want to give your loved one the erotic experience of his or her life, I suggest that you take a small bottle of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (it surely doesn't have to be Italian) into your bedroom and surprise her.

    I use olive oil to fight ants.

    When summer arrives and an ant-colony digs itself out of the ground, I always pour olive oil in it. A lot. Cheap Spanish olive oil, but still olive oil.

    It doesn't kill the ants but it messes with the larvae gluing their breathing holes shut and they die.

    It's a perfectly biological way to wipe-out an ant nest and leaves only a greasy stain which eventually dries out.

    I agree with Dan here, you want intruders coming through a window or through the frontdoor. or not at all, it is imperative to protect home and family at any cost necessary.

    I wonder how many times your outcome is what really happens as opposed

    Sure it is sad when a child plays with a gun and is killed by it, But that is no reason to eliminate them nor is it segway for the anti-gun people to start pointing fingers offering a lot air which does not do anything constructive.

    The real question has to be about accountability, is the gun not where
    children can reach it but accessible enough in case it is need for home defense.

    Hello David,

    And yet you submit to your belief...

    Believing in something enough to fight and die for it, is worth
    fighting for.

    I would need to know what I was fighting for, not just accept some proposition with no evidence what so ever.

    Peope do not need to know what they are fighting for.
    Nor do people have to accept some proposition with no evidence
    in order to fight.

    A soldier is a trained killer. The only reason a soldier needs
    is his commanding officer giving him the order. IOW, following
    orders is his gig. He does as he is told. Without question.

    This is not a indigenous belief to Americans, far from it.

    True, USA does not have the monopoly on religious nutters but it sure
    does
    have more than its equal share.

    Israel is a theocratic state, whose adherents are Jewish.
    Iran is a theocratic state, whose adherents are Muslim.
    Vatican City is a theocratic state, whose adherents are Christian.

    None of these theocratic states have a monopoly on religions nutters.
    Even though each of them has a monopoly on religious matters.

    As you can plainly see, the USA is not a theocratic state.
    But that can change. All the USA needs is Mike Pence as president.

    Trust me when I tell you, Mike Pence will make you pray.
    Not only you, but the entire world.

    Hello David,

    There are other uses for guns. Here are a couple:

    1. Sport/target shooting. Challenging and fun.

    Shooting at innocent chunks of clay hurled into the air is challenging
    and
    fun? How about you are the chunks of clay and see how challenging and fun that it.

    Be careful. I once dated a gal who lived nearby who loved shooting
    those "innocent chunks of clay hurled into the air." She was so good
    at it she could shoot the balls off a guy from a mile away. Actually
    won Olympic gold (shooting at chunks of clay). I reckon I should
    consider myself lucky she never turned hostile ...

    How quickly can you access the firearms when the armed thugs
    break in?

    Are you thinking of trying? ;-)

    The one in my bedroom (locked in a biometric-lock small safe) - in
    2-3 seconds. Probably less if I'm not fully asleep.

    The others, in the other room, are not relevant in this scenario.

    help? What will either of those actions get you? That's right...... dead. For someone (like me) who has a loaded pistol in my nightstand,
    the outcome will likely be two dead thugs, and my family and property safe.

    I wonder how many times your outcome is what really happens as
    opposed to something else. E.g. one of the kids finds the gun
    and plays with it.

    Anyone who allows the chance of a kid finding/playing with the gun
    should be prosecuted and jailed. In my case, the kids are grown,

    I completely agree -- but I was reacting to your statement "who has a
    loaded pistol in my nightstand".

    and even yet, the gun is in a locked (biometric quick-open) small
    safe. All the other guns in the house are locked in a large safe

    You did not say that you had a safe in your nightstand. That is much
    more responsible than your orignal statement implied.

    I see. Thankfully we don't need a license to own/possess a gun
    here in the USA. Our Constitution guarantees us the absolute
    RIGHT to do so.

    In most states that is not true. One needs a license to purchase
    and in many places needs to pass a gun safety course. You seem
    to be from Florida, which has a more lenient set of rules.

    I don't believe that is true. Perhaps in the few almost-communist
    states like Kalifornia, NY, NJ, IL, MD, etc you need a license to purchase, but not in nearly all other states.

    You left out CT, DC, HI, IO, MA, MN, NB, NC, and RI from your list of
    states where one needs a permit to purchase a handgun. That makes 14
    and so I will amend my statement from most to many. There are other
    states where one does not need a permit to purchase, but must register.
    Even Florida requires a 3 day waiting period for a records check.


    You may be confusing the requirements to get a "concealed carry"
    permit, which does require a license, safety course, etc (in most
    but not all states).

    No -- I looked up the states I was most familiar with, including the
    state where I live and have the most knowledge.

    Well, when cooking I never waste such an extraordinary product as
    Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I only use butter and/or Rape Seed oil for cooking.

    In Italy the butter is used mainly only for cakes and for "Risotto".

    I Think it's mainly a cultural and geographical matter, in past times the commercial exchanges was less than now and countries that don't have the rigth climate to grow Olive Tree used animal fat like butter and lard.

    We use Extra Virgin Olive oil for everything, mainly for raw food like salads or tomatoes but also on grilled meat or grilled vegetables but also when we prepare sauces, for example in Ragu' alla bolognese, Amatriciana, Carbonara and so on we only use EVOO.

    The only time I use my valuable Extra Virgin Oil is when dripping
    it onto a salad, pasta, pizza, making mayonnaise or something similar. Heating it in a frying pan reduces it to Ordinary Olive Oil.

    Mayonnaise with EVOO gets a bit stronger taste, if you like it so it's ok, otherwise we use seeds oil for a bit smoother taste.

    In the last times the price for *REALLY* IEVOO (a lot of frauds happened in Italy) has raised a lot so we use EU EVOO for coocking and IEVOO for raw food.

    'Biometric" as in how? Fingerprint? Eye-scan? Bettery powered or on the grid? If I enter your house illegally and shut-off the power first, is the safe still safe? Can it still be opened?

    Just curious.

    Personally I don't get excited about gun-ownership but if I'd live in Montana, I'd have one.

    I've had one break-in attempt many years ago, young kids (like in their 20s) trying to get in via the garage. Now I still have my grandfather's WW1 bayonet sheathed. These were not small things but long heavy things, like a small sword. Slammed-on the lights, stood there, unsheathed the bayonet/sword in plain sight and I swear I've never seen anyone run as fast as these kids to the get-away car.

    Ever since, I also have baseball bats at strategic locations, out of sight, but where I know they are.

    I'll take your word on the 14, but to put that into percentages,
    that's about 28%. Not sure that even qualifies for the "many"
    category. Perhaps "some". I would also argue that those 14
    states may have un-Constitutional requirements in place.

    There are other states where one does not need a permit to
    purchase, but must register. Even Florida requires a 3 day
    waiting period for a records check.

    There are many details... In Florida the 3-day waiting period is
    waived for people who possess Concealed Carry Permits, which are
    fairly easy to get. Does require fingerprinting, background
    check, proof of safety training, etc. Also, the 3-day thing is
    only for handguns - long guns have no waiting period.

    Hello Bj”rn,

    Ward is a Barbarian, he use butter instead of Italian Extra Virgin Olive
    Oil, you can figure out his taste about cars. :P :P :P

    In my previous comment I mentioned a few of my uses of this wonderful product that nature has given us.

    Thanks to Casanova, who taught us how to use it.

    I deliberately left out the most important use of mine.

    Jesus' first miracle was turning water into wine. He did it
    because his mother asked him to. If you read the gospel account,
    you'll know what really happened, and why.

    Jesus' friends had crashed a wedding reception, and drank all
    the wine in storage. Jesus' mother was desperate, and asked him
    to do something, as his friends were passed out drunk with no wine
    left in the caskets.

    At first, he refused, saying it was not yet his time. Now, in
    order to understand this, realize that Jewish men do not start
    growing a beard until they get married. And Jesus was still a
    very happy single guy, with no beard at all.

    However, his mother insisted. And continued to insist. Until
    finally Jesus gave up and told her he would take care of it.

    Rather than waking up his friends, as he knew what they would do,
    Jesus instructed one of workers at the reception to fill up one
    of the caskets with water. Then, he waved his magic hands and
    turned the water into erotic oil.

    The bride and groom then entered the room, and were totally
    amazed. Dipping his finger into the casket, the groom instantly
    knew he and his bride were going to have loads of fun after the
    party.

    There is some question as to whether Jesus was a he or a she.
    In my opinion, Jesus was a true hermaphodite, as the gospel
    accounts clearly show his lover Judas Iscariot kissing him on
    the lips in an olive garden.

    Why else would Roman soldiers need a guy to point out Jesus,
    unless Jesus was a woman? All the married guys had beards, but
    no women. Therefore, it stands to reason ...

    And here I suggest that all the prudish US readers skip to the next
    message,
    because this is about sex, something that you obviously does not want to read or hear about -- unless it involves a lot of violence.

    Vikings. The race that conquered the world. Violent? With horns
    on helmets, you betcha!

    My wife and I first came in contact with the use of EVOO in our bedroom
    some
    30 years ago. After that first encounter, she always kept a small bottle
    of
    EVOO handy in our bedroom.

    Olive oil has been used for thousands of years, especially noted
    by Italians, Greeks, and Mediterranean peoples. There are other
    natural personal lubricants, but olive oil is the nectar of the
    gods (in a manner of speaking).

    Many seriously erotic encounters later I still remember every one of
    them. I
    remember the massage I gave her with the EVOO, I remember the poignant taste of her salty sweat in combination with the fantastic olive oil. All over her body.

    It's even better when you spice it up. Black pepper, geranium,
    ylang ylang ...

    And I still miss her like hell, more than three years after her untimely demise... :(

    I was at a casino the other day, and overheard an elderly lady
    who was playing the slots "I hope there are slot machines in heaven."

    Mormons hold the view that there is sex in heaven, with those
    they were with on this planet. Now, I do not know how different
    Mormon heaven is from other heavens. Nor do I care to find out.

    Point is, once an individual has completed his/her task on this
    plane of existence, then that individual moves on to his/her next
    plane of existence, whatever that may be.

    Are there slot machines in heaven?
    Is there sex in heaven?

    Longing for something that once existed is looking backward.
    It is a hope imagined, but nothing real.

    And yet, we must imagine for anything to be real.

    If you really want to give your loved one the erotic experience of his or her life, I suggest that you take a small bottle of Extra Virgin Olive
    Oil
    (it surely doesn't have to be Italian) into your bedroom and surprise
    her.

    Adding black pepper gives it a warming sensation.
    Adding peppermint gives it a cooling sensation.
    Adding cinnamon oil gives it a very warm sensation.

    Really fun combos to experiment with. Not limited
    to those mentioned. Best in small doses before going
    whole hog.

    Oil-based personal lubricants (such as olive oil) won't work
    with condoms. Or anything else made of latex. Better to ask
    David D. for some sheep.

    Rapeseed oil a definite no-no.
    Remember, you have been warned.

    Olive oil + coconut oil + (essential oils of choice) = workable combo

    Hi Dan, I have a question. I have no issues with your reasoning. I fully understand you wanting/needing to protect your family/etc. (and even the sporting aspect.)

    I'm curious as to why this scenario always ends up with 'dead thugs' or
    some such.

    Why isn't the goal ever to incapacitate the 'thugs' to ensure they go through the system, receive punishment for their crimes and suffer in prison? (Hell, depending on what they've done, I'm OK with them living their life in
    solitary so they never get to interact with another human again.)

    Is murdering an individual because they entered your house really
    justification for murder?

    (Do I really have the right to decide whether someone else's life has no value and can terminate it without going through the judicial process?)

    (I do understand that there may be situations where you injure them and they continue to attempt to attack, which very well may be justification.)

    Why? Has it been proven to work? Like in Chicago?

    (No one really needs an AR-15 unless you're in a war trying to
    kill lots of people.)

    Well, that's your opinion, anyway. Pretty hard to define "need"
    sometimes. Quite easy to define a Constitutional right, though.

    By the way, AR-15's are not used in war. By anybody.

    Hi Dan, I have a question. I have no issues with your reasoning.
    I fully understand you wanting/needing to protect your
    family/etc. (and even the sporting aspect.)

    Glad to hear.

    I'm curious as to why this scenario always ends up with 'dead
    thugs' or some such.

    Why isn't the goal ever to incapacitate the 'thugs' to ensure
    they go through the system, receive punishment for their crimes
    and suffer in prison? (Hell, depending on what they've done, I'm
    OK with them living their life in solitary so they never get to
    interact with another human again.)

    The goal in a home defense scenario is not *necessarily* to kill
    the intruders. It is to end the threat to life and property.
    Since you probably don't know the extent of the armament of the
    intruders, you can take no chances. The customary (widely
    accepted and not subject to interpretation) procedure is to end
    the threat as soon as possible. Therefore anyone with any
    training is taught to aim at the "center of mass". If you are
    skilled (and a little lucky perhaps), that's where your bullet(s)
    will hit. Since that is probably the chest/torso area of the
    intruder, there's a pretty good chance that that may result in
    killing them (heart/lungs/etc).

    Look at it this way - if you purposely shot them in the leg to
    incapacitate them, then maybe they are laying there on the floor
    and stopped for the moment. What if there are two or more of
    them? If you turn away to engage another threat, what would stop
    that first one from pulling a gun and killing you while laying on
    the floor? You can't take that chance. Another thing to remember
    is that it is likely that the room(s) you are in are very dimly
    lit or even almost pitch black. You shoot at the target until it
    is neutralized and that's it. You just can't take a chance in
    doing it any other way.

    Is murdering an individual because they entered your house really justification for murder?

    In the laws of any state that I know of..... Yes.

    Again, you don't know their intentions and have every right to
    protect yourself.

    (Do I really have the right to decide whether someone else's life
    has no value and can terminate it without going through the
    judicial process?)

    Yes, you do, in the situations I am describing.

    (I do understand that there may be situations where you injure
    them and they continue to attempt to attack, which very well may
    be justification.)

    Discussed that above, and remember that you could become *DEAD*
    because you allowed them to "continue to attempt to attack".

    Hope this clears things up a little for you.

    Yes, it is. Here's why:

    Gun rights are GUARANTEED by the US Constitution.

    Only in so far as joining a militia to ward off a rambuncious government

    The act of killing babies is NOT protected by the Constitution.

    A foetus is not a baby. There is no prohibition in the US constitution outlawing the expelling of unwanted foetuses. Or maybe there is - can you reference the appropriate part please?

    There. Pretty simple, isn't it?

    Not so, no

    I see. Thankfully we don't need a license to own/possess a gun here in the USA. Our Constitution guarantees us the absolute RIGHT to do so.

    In most states that is not true. One needs a license to purchase
    and in
    many places needs to pass a gun safety course. You seem to be from Florida, which has a more lenient set of rules.

    To hell with lefty democrats telling us what we should and shouldn't do. Andrew Cuomo one of many stupid remarks....
    "you don't need 10 shots to shoot a deer."

    I live in rural Iowa. For several years a poacher used to pull his
    pickup into a minimum-maintenance road and "hunt" deer. I watched the
    b*s*tard fire at LEAST ten shots at one terrified deer before he finally
    killed it. Unfortunately the sheriff and the fish-and-game people are
    never around when you need them (using a rifle in the shotgun season). I haven't seen the guy for the past few years, so maybe they caught him.


    He thinks of himself to much and must of been rather proud of himself
    when he made this self-proculamation on guns in New York.
    What is allowed and not allowed. He can jump off the highest bridge as
    far as
    I am concerned. Maybe the new one called Mario M. Cuomo bridge that he
    named
    from his daddy at the tax payers expense.

    As far I am concerned these Gun Rights are Federal Rights, that can not be taken away by any state.

    Hi Dan, I have a question. I have no issues with your reasoning. I fully understand you wanting/needing to protect your family/etc. (and even the sporting aspect.)

    I'm curious as to why this scenario always ends up with 'dead thugs' or
    some such.

    Why isn't the goal ever to incapacitate the 'thugs' to ensure they go
    through
    the system, receive punishment for their crimes and suffer in prison?

    What if one of the thugs you "incapacitated" has a weapon and shoots you?

    (Hell,
    depending on what they've done, I'm OK with them living their life in solitary so they never get to interact with another human again.)

    Is murdering an individual because they entered your house really justification for murder?

    Self defense is not murder.

    (Do I really have the right to decide whether someone else's life has
    no value
    and can terminate it without going through the judicial process?)

    It depends on the circumstances.

    (I do understand that there may be situations where you injure them and
    they
    continue to attempt to attack, which very well may be justification.)

    I had a 2001 V70 wagon, the plain old model - and loved it.

    I have 2010 V70 and I still love it. I first fell in love with it when my wife and I borrowed it from the original owner, my BIL, for the round trip to and from our daughter who lives 1250km from here. Watching the fuel consumption on 120km/h highway speed going down to around 5 litres/100 km was something amazing. The Mercedes we left behind barely made it below 10 litres.

    We instantly decided that we wanted to buy that car from the BIL, who worked at Volvo and had special employee deals, when he decided to upgrade to a newer model. And we got it in 2015 and I still hang on to it.

    I still
    want to get a 2004 XC70 if I can find a well-maintained one - that was
    the last purely Volvo (designed and built by Volvo) if memory serves.
    I think the next year was the year they came out with that Ford Taurus world platform.

    Of that I've never heard. Volvo never used any Ford technology. On the contrary, Ford copied the Volvo platform and tried to make Ford cars that would match the well known Volvo reputation. And failed miserably.

    Volvo cars has always been developed in G”teborg, Sweden ever since 1927, and Volvo will proudly continue to do so. The Ford years 1999-2009 were not good for Volvo, but they continued to build high quality cars despite Ford's wishes. The 2002 XC90 for instance was a formidable sale success.

    Fortunately those years were even worse for Ford, that didn't know how to properly use what they bought (Volvo, Aston Martin, Land Rover and Jaguar). So in 2009 they finally gave up.

    You carried either an M-14 or an M-16.

    An AR-15 is *NOT* a military weapon, and never has been. It also
    is *NOT* the same thing as an M14/M16. I would hope that you know
    the differences, and I'm wondering why you apparently do not.

    The Truth is that there are people from both sides of
    the isle that are at odds with the abortion issue. So your attempt to
    this a righty conservative issue, is yet another example of your fail

    Anti-abortion is a conservative outlook, regardless of which political
    persuasion one is aligned to

    It's more about pro-life vs pro-choice. and less about being
    Conservative vs being Liberal. To have what your saying make any sense it would have to mean that liberals do not love their children and that is simply NOT true.

    A foetus is NOT a child. A woman wanting to expel a foetus obviously does not have a lot of love for it.

    A foetus cannot be murdered - unless they make abortion illegal. If it
    is legal it is not murder.

    It's much more complicated then that?
    What is a fetus?

    noun: foetus
    an unborn or unhatched offspring of a mammal, in particular an unborn human more than eight weeks after conception.

    When does life begin?

    That is the $64,000 question. If it is immoral to "kill" a foetus why is it acceptable to kill an 18yo soldier or civilian children?

    Is it a fetus still when born at the end of a full term pregnancy.

    The moment of birth it becomes a baby. A foetus is "unborn"

    At what point does it become immoral?

    As with right and wrong, morality is a matter of personal choice (like abortion should be)

    Why is it acceptable to kill someone entering a home uninvited, but not
    for a woman who has an unwanted conception?

    Choices leads to intent which leads the criminal act which leads to judgment and then punishment.

    Then don't legislate against abortion and it will not be a criminal act.

    I doubt that many women who seek an abortion "chose" to become pregnant.

    The news media out of the USA reaching here does seem fixated on "late term abortion", not something I'm aware of in Australia (doesn't mean it isn't happening though).

    I suppose that with abortion being legal here the women get it over and done with early instead of having to fight tooth and nail until late in the pregnancy to have the procedure.

    Of course the emphasis on late term abortion may just be the mandate of an anti abortion editorial policy...

    That can be passed by too ;-(.
    In the south of France and in Spain there are troops that insert a gas into the
    ventilation holes of your caravan at the car parking on the highway routes to the south, so they can enter your mobile home and steal all the valuable things
    before you can get awake again. Because of that special gas they inserted in your (mobile) home you donot see, hear of feel them entering it.
    The next morning you are flabbergasted at what happened that night ;-(.

    The only solution to prevent this is a overpressured home in which no gases from outside can enter it without you knowing.
    At the living on tankers they do the same, so never a gas from the (liquid) cargo hold will enter the steering house and living of the tank ship.
    This technique is mandatory for inland tanker ships in Europe.
    They are called the ADN rules.

    Hello Dan,

    The act of killing babies is NOT protected by the Constitution.
    There. Pretty simple, isn't it?

    "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of
    religion..." ALL of the anti-abortion arguments are based on
    their religion

    Bullshit. I'm anti-abortion and could not care less about
    religion. Speaking for myself, I'm against it because I don't
    think an innocent baby should be killed because the mother is irresponsible/stupid, or for any other reason for that matter.

    So you are going to pay 20 years for rising up that baby,
    because the very young mother has no job, no income and is very poor.
    As you are against abortion, YOU should pay the grow up of that baby/child.
    Oh you do not want that? Then let that girl get her abortion.
    If you are not the father, it is NOT your business.
    The world can not produce enough food for every human being.
    So producing unlimited baby's is a very stupid thing.
    It will give too much pain to everyone concerned in that area,
    because many childs will die, because of too less amount of food,
    and that is very bad for the menthal health of the parents.

    Adoption is always a better option.

    So you think a raped 11 yr old kid should full fill here pregnancy?
    A very bad idea, because she is still a kid herself,
    and the pregnancy will damage the health of her ungrown body too much.
    Besides that, she is not mentally prepared to full fill such a pregnancy at that age.
    Sorry but YOU are NOT responsable for what others do at this point,
    so mind your own business.

    In nature abortion happens too.
    You know a female shark produces eggs to feed the baby shark growing in her. You call that abortion too, as in your eyes every egg should grow up.
    So than immediately stop eating eggs from chicken, they should all be grown up.
    Even the most part of your own seed is not growing up, what a waste.
    But in nature that is not waste, but food for others.

    ... Ignorance can be cured. Stupid is forever.

    Ofcourse not.
    If I decide to ignore you, no one can change that than only me.
    So be nice to me, to prevent me from ignoring you ;-).

    Greetings from Henri.

    Why what was it? that was "alleged" that he said.

    Adoption is always a better option.

    So you think a raped 11 yr old kid should full fill here
    pregnancy?

    No, I don't. I would make exceptions for rape/incest pregnancies.

    A very bad idea, because she is still a kid herself,
    and the pregnancy will damage the health of her ungrown body too
    much. Besides that, she is not mentally prepared to full fill
    such a pregnancy at that age.
    Sorry but YOU are NOT responsable for what others do at this
    point, so mind your own business.

    So..... if I'm not responsible (what you said right there above),
    why should I have to pay for anything related to this?

    If I decide to ignore you, no one can change that than only me.
    So be nice to me, to prevent me from ignoring you ;-).

    You're free to do whatever you like regarding that. Do you

    Bullshit. I'm anti-abortion and could not care less about
    religion. Speaking for myself, I'm against it because I don't
    think an innocent baby should be killed because the mother is irresponsible/stupid, or for any other reason for that matter.

    So... it's always the female's fault? The bloke has never coerced her into opening her legs?

    Then of course, a properly maintained fence could work equally well, without the need for any guns, no?

    Foxes at least can burrow under the fences. My brother had a female dog here for a while. We found a number of places where the local male dogs had got under the fence.

    The bitch is now gone (cancer) and the fence is undergoing a rebuild with barbed wire top and bottom of the netting before he gets another.

    At least it seems to work for my neighbours, with a lot of foxes, wolves and stray dogs running around here.

    The dogs entering this property were more interested in the company of the brother's bitch than bothering our chooks. The chook pen has netting buried some distance down and out from the wall but the chooks roam free during the daytime within the greater fenced property (2.16ha).

    I.e. they would just have to sit outside your house making a lot of

    Can anyone quote for me the part of the US constitution
    that legalises deadly force in the protection of one's
    homes/teen aged daughter?

    No, but the various states have laws which vary on that topic. There
    was a fairly famous case in Florida a few years back when a young man
    was walking back from a store and was shot and killed for WWB (walking
    while black). The man who shot him was a "neighbor hood watch guard"
    (i.e. self appointed patrol). He got free because the law in Florida
    included what was called "stand your ground" implying that even on a
    public street you had the option to use deadly force if you felt
    threatened. That was not even a case of shooting a suspected home
    invader.

    Other states do not have such a law. Hard to define what is legally
    justified across the nation.

    two and a rooster now... there were 25 or so hens at one point but age took them... we generally stocked up with new bitties every X years when the hen count was getting low... that restocking is not so easily done any more now that dad is gone...

    Do you really need to fence in creeks and streams?

    if this property is going to be fenced in as you suggested, yes... there are two creeks that run through here... both entry and exit points would need to be fenced... in at least one place, the area is 3+ feet deep; 5 or 6 if you're going to road level... in addition to this fencing, what about cleaning out all the leaves and branches that draft up against them? are you willing to do that job? we're not... while we do have some fencing in place, it is mainly barbed wire for denoting the property lines... mesh fencing (as opposed to wire fencing) won't keep out the deer, dogs, wolves, foxes or coyotes in the area... we won't even mention the big cats (bobcat & couger) out here...

    our chickens free-range all over ~50% of this (~20 acre) property scratching for edibles in the woods... this is not cleared field or pasture land... it is woods; woods we've fought to keep and clear-cut or stripped like others have done... the chickens have a coop they go in at night and sadly, they apparently ran to the coop when this attack took place... that's where many of them were caught because that's where most of the discovered feathers were found...

    Hello Henri,

    The act of killing babies is NOT protected by the Constitution.
    There. Pretty simple, isn't it?

    "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of
    religion..." ALL of the anti-abortion arguments are based on
    their religion

    Bullshit. I'm anti-abortion and could not care less about
    religion. Speaking for myself, I'm against it because I don't
    think an innocent baby should be killed because the mother is
    irresponsible/stupid, or for any other reason for that matter.

    So you are going to pay 20 years for rising up that baby,
    because the very young mother has no job, no income and is very poor.

    Nah. The kid will put it up for adoption and let the state take
    care of the rest. A legal form of kidnapping. Can't afford to raise
    a kid? Put it up for adoption. The Trump administration has taken
    this to a new level, separating parents from their children when
    they cross the border. So why not separate the children from their
    babies among those who are already here?

    As you are against abortion, YOU should pay the grow up of that
    baby/child.

    But there are so many others who are willing to pay ...

    Oh you do not want that? Then let that girl get her abortion.

    Her parents won't let her do that. You see, parental consent
    is required for children to get an abortion. Even if she was raped
    by her own daddy.

    If you are not the father, it is NOT your business.

    Even convicted rapists have their rights. And that includes
    parental consent if their victim is a pregnant kid. But new laws
    passed allow for no exceptions including rape and incest. So the
    kid has no choice but to have the rapist's baby. Even if she
    doesn't like it.

    The world can not produce enough food for every human being.
    So producing unlimited baby's is a very stupid thing.
    It will give too much pain to everyone concerned in that area,
    because many childs will die, because of too less amount of food,
    and that is very bad for the menthal health of the parents.

    Russia has an aging population, which is why Vladimir Putin is
    forced to find new lands to conquer. Such as Crimea and Georgia
    and who knows where else ...

    Japan has an aging population, which is why it is thinking about
    changing the constitution to allow for the military to conquer
    other lands as it did before. Unfortunately, there are no new
    lands to conquer, except for a few rocky islands that are not
    yet underwater due to climate change.

    Adoption is always a better option.

    So you think a raped 11 yr old kid should full fill here pregnancy?
    A very bad idea, because she is still a kid herself,
    and the pregnancy will damage the health of her ungrown body too much.

    There is nothing illegal about kids having kids with other kids.
    The grown-ups are now insisting that kids having kids with other
    kids actually have those kids, making it illegal for others to
    keep that from happening.

    There is no age of consent among kids. Only for adults.
    But new laws passed make no distinction, thus forcing kids
    to have kids with everybody, including grown-ups.

    Even if a grown-up is a convicted rapist, his victim (regardless
    of age) is forced to have the kid, as there are no exceptions for
    rape or incest.

    Besides that, she is not mentally prepared to full fill such a pregnancy
    at
    that age.

    Kids have kids all the time. Everywhere around the world.

    Sorry but YOU are NOT responsable for what others do at this point,
    so mind your own business.

    But he's a right-to-lifer! Gotta protect those unborn children!
    No matter what the cost! But let's keep the death penalty machine
    oiled and greased, ready for use!

    In nature abortion happens too.
    You know a female shark produces eggs to feed the baby shark growing in
    her.
    You call that abortion too, as in your eyes every egg should grow up.
    So than immediately stop eating eggs from chicken, they should all be
    grown
    up.
    Even the most part of your own seed is not growing up, what a waste.
    But in nature that is not waste, but food for others.

    Beans. You forgot the beans. Aborted plants. Know what I mean?
    Gotta eat beans to expel the hot air. Lots and lots of beans ...

    ... Ignorance can be cured. Stupid is forever.

    Ofcourse not.

    Stupid is as stupid does. Is that fixable?

    If I decide to ignore you, no one can change that than only me.
    So be nice to me, to prevent me from ignoring you ;-).

    I can't fix stupid.

    Smashing the delete key without smashing my own finger

    I've sized the chook access to the coop to be just big enough for the rooster (the hens are smaller than the rooster) to pass through, hopefully too small for the wild dogs.

    Foxes on the other hand are not so large so I may still have an issue there.

    I saw silver foxes in Patagonia when I visited there. There were rather large animals compared with the red foxes we have in Australia. The Aussie fox is still large enough to take a chook.

    My niece (and her husband) have lost many fowl to foxes - she is about 400km from here so I'm not sure that I have such a fox population. I thought I heard one crying from across the valley one evening but maybe not...

    Hello Dan,

    No, I'm not going to pay for that. The family of the mother can
    pay for that.

    I think an abortion is much cheaper than paying 20 years for growing up a unwanted baby to a selfsupporting human.

    If you are not the father, it is NOT your business.

    It is if my tax dollars are being used to pay/support (which they
    are).

    If the baby is made by a rape, that boy should pay the abortion or the adoption.
    If that boy is not found, the government should pay the abortion,
    until the police finds the boy. After that the boy has to pay back afterwards.

    Adoption is always a better option.

    So you think a raped 11 yr old kid should full fill here
    pregnancy?

    No, I don't. I would make exceptions for rape/incest pregnancies.

    Then donot use the words "always" or "never" !

    So..... if I'm not responsible (what you said right there above),
    why should I have to pay for anything related to this?

    Indeed.
    Both boy/man and girl/woman have to pay the abortion or adoption.

    If I decide to ignore you, no one can change that than only me.
    So be nice to me, to prevent me from ignoring you ;-).

    You're free to do whatever you like regarding that.
    Do you actually think I care if you ignore me?

    Look at the much more friendly words Fabio used here.
    You are a hardway man, not so nice to discuss with.

    ... Post may contain information unsuitable for overly sensitive
    persons.

    Indeed ;-(.

    Henri.

    An 11-year-old girl in Ohio was allegedly raped by a 26-year-old multiple times, leaving her pregnant, according to police reports. A state law passed in April, but not yet in effect, says that victims like her won't have a choice to have an abortion -- they would have to carry and deliver their rapist's child.

    The law prohibits women from obtaining an abortion after a fetal heartbeat is detected, about five or six weeks into a pregnancy, before most women even know that they're pregnant.

    The law provides no exceptions for rape or incest.

    or

    https://tinyurl.com/yyq2vr3f
    https://preview.tinyurl.com/yyq2vr3f

    and the worst part? these states that are trying to pass these laws have no women on the committees doing this... there's no input from females that are affected by these laws... then there's the reports that these laws are being passed by these states with the specific intention of taking the cases to the supreme court... a supreme court now loaded with those not in favor of "roe vs wade"... one of the new justices has been accused of plagiarism (included other's work in a book without proper attribution) and the other accused of sexual assault and/or sexual misconduct by three women; also accused of lying to the judicial committee...

    FWIW and for those that do not know:

    Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973), was a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in which the Court ruled that the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution provides a fundamental "right to privacy" that protects a pregnant woman's liberty to choose whether or not to have an abortion. However, it ruled that this right is not absolute, and must be balanced against the government's interests in protecting women's health and protecting prenatal life. The Court resolved this balancing test by tying state regulation of abortion to the three trimesters of pregnancy: the Court ruled that during the first trimester, governments could not prohibit abortions at all; during the second trimester, governments could require reasonable health regulations; during the third trimester, abortions could be prohibited entirely so long as the laws contained exceptions for cases when abortion was necessary to save the life of the mother. Because the Court classified the right to choose to have an abortion as "fundamental", the decision required courts to evaluate challenged abortion laws under the "strict scrutiny" standard, the highest level of judicial review in the United States.

    Hello David,

    But I didn't. You were talking about your chicken, remember.

    Russians are working on a solution by domesticating silver foxes.
    Presumably, after a few hundred generations, silver foxes will no
    longer have a taste for fresh chicken and fences will no longer
    be necessary to keep the chickens couped up.

    What about the feral/non-domesticated silver foxes?

    Once domesticated, always domesticated.

    This was published in the April 2019 edition of Popular Mechanics
    magazine.

    It must be true then....

    Of course it is.

    So please. Do not claim I am making this stuff up.

    I saw silver foxes in Patagonia when I visited there. There were rather large animals compared with the red foxes we have in Australia. The
    Aussie
    fox is still large enough to take a chook.

    The process as to how to domesticate one color of foxes should
    also work for other colors of foxes. But I am not Russian, so am
    not able to tell you with absolute certainty. Perhaps our Russian
    friends in this echo might have some experience in this matter ...

    My niece (and her husband) have lost many fowl to foxes -

    What color foxes were they? This is important, as only silver
    foxes are known to have been domesticated ...

    she is about 400km from here so I'm not sure that I have such a fox population.

    Most people think Australia has only crocodiles and kangaroos.
    Along with dingos. But apparently foxes live everywhere ...

    I thought I heard one crying from across the valley one evening but maybe not...

    Better make sure to lock your doors at night. Otherwise you
    might get invaded by whatever color of foxes inhabitats Oz.

    Well, that's your opinion, anyway. Pretty hard to define "need" sometimes. Quite easy to define a Constitutional right, though.

    By the way, AR-15's are not used in war. By anybody.

    Ah, but they were. I carried one (but didn't fire it) when I was

    No, you didn't. Your memory is getting fuzzy.

    You carried either an M-14 or an M-16.

    I was in the Air Force, Dan, and I carried an AR-15. I don't think the
    M-14 or M-16 was in the Army's inventory in 1965, although I'm sure they
    were being tested.

    An AR-15 is *NOT* a military weapon, and never has been. It also
    is *NOT* the same thing as an M14/M16. I would hope that you know
    the differences, and I'm wondering why you apparently do not.

    I don't know the differences, as far as I know I've never seen an M-16 or

    Actually, it was 2007, the 3rd generation. The Ford Galaxy, S-Max,

    It's worse in Mississippi.

    There is only one city in Mississippi where a woman can get
    an abortion. That is Jackson. Actually, one building in Jackson.
    A small pink building.

    A woman in Mississippi can get an abortion up to 15 weeks pregnant.
    If she is 16 weeks pregnant she is shit out of luck and must carry
    to term.

    The building next door to the building where women can get an
    abortion is a crisis pregnancy center. This is where women who
    have no money go when they want to have an abortion. The folks
    at the crisis pregnancy center are not there to help women get
    an abortion, but to stonewall women long enough so that they
    can no longer get an abortion.

    If you are a woman, have no money, and are just a little bit
    pregnant, you may not know you are pregnant until well after you
    are 15 weeks pregnant. How are you going to get out this pickle
    when the place you are staying is not all that stable?

    Hopping on a bus to go to California in order to get an abortion
    is not all that easy for someone in Mississippi who has no money.

    Would it be correct to issue a law, that a raped girl/woman should at
    once visit a clinic to prevent her pregnancy? In this case she will not
    have the dilemma "to kill or not to kill". I believe that every girl in

    Hello Alexander,

    So you think a raped 11 yr old kid should full fill here
    pregnancy? A very bad idea, because she is still a kid herself,
    and the pregnancy will damage the health of her ungrown body
    too much. Besides that, she is not mentally prepared to full

    A woman (or child) who has been raped is examined, evidence collected,
    and given a spermicide of some kind that induces abortion. However,
    not all women (or children) who have been raped have the opportunity
    to get in touch with law enforcement (or go to a hospital), as they
    are incarcerated at home by the perpetrator(s) who got them preggers.
    And with new laws on the books making abortion illegal, with no
    exceptions (even for rape and incest), the women (or children) who
    are preggers are doomed.

    I know a woman who never knew she was pregnant until she had one.
    Not really sure she knew who knocked her up, or that it mattered.
    Not even sure she wanted to know. Not that it mattered.

    She got pregnant against her will !

    I believe that every girl in this world now knows that having sex
    may cause pregnancy.

    First: Many girls in poor countries donot get sexual education at school.
    So they even donot know how live works,
    and got pregnant before they realise that,
    after missing one or two monthly periods.
    Second: Rape or incest is not sex at free will for the girl/woman.
    She could not prevent that unwanted conception against a strong man. Third: In case of rape or incest, the man should be punished,
    not the girl/woman.

    In nature there is also abortion bacause of a bad health,
    you can not always prevent that, sometimes unluckily.
    Would you bring a woman to court if she got a natural unforced abortion?
    Sorry but it is her body,

    Hello Henri,

    So you think a raped 11 yr old kid should full fill here
    pregnancy? A very bad idea, because she is still a kid herself,
    and the pregnancy will damage the health of her ungrown body
    too much. Besides that, she is not mentally prepared to full

    Would it be correct to issue a law, that a raped girl/woman should at
    once visit a clinic to prevent her pregnancy?

    So you think it is her fault, that she is raped or got incest?

    Doesn't matter. Right-to-lifers got their laws passed mandating
    that all abortions are illegal, no exceptions, even for victims of
    rape and incest.

    In this case she will not have the dilemma "to kill or not to kill".

    She got pregnant against her will !

    Doesn't matter. Right-to-lifers gotta protect those unborn children, regardless of the health and welfare of mommy dearest.

    I believe that every girl in this world now knows that having sex
    may cause pregnancy.

    First: Many girls in poor countries do not get sexual education at
    school.
    So they even do not know how live works, and got pregnant before they realise that, after missing one or two monthly periods.

    Girls (presumably under age 18) are ignorant, therefore it is all
    their fault. That is no excuse for getting an abortion. Especially
    since condoms are freely available for those who can afford them.
    Oh. That's right. Right-to-lifers want to ban the use of concoms
    since using condoms would amount to being pre-emptive abortions.

    Second: Rape or incest is not sex at free will for the girl/woman.
    She could not prevent that unwanted conception against a strong man.

    Which is why right-to-lifers insist on no exceptions for women
    who are victims of rape and/or incest. Gotta protect the unborn
    child at all costs, including if it kills the mother.

    Third: In case of rape or incest, the man should be punished,
    not the girl/woman.

    Then why do right-to-lifers insist on no exceptions, forcing
    women who are victims of rape and/or incest to carry the unborn
    child to term?

    In nature there is also abortion bacause of a bad health,
    you can not always prevent that, sometimes unluckily.

    A queen bee feeds her eggs to her own young to survive, and then
    gets eaten when they grow up.

    Would you bring a woman to court if she got a natural unforced abortion?

    Only if I was a mullah in Iran.

    Sorry but it is her body, and not any man has the right to tell her what
    to
    do or not, period.

    A mullah in Iran can order a woman to get herself stoned by a mob.

    Hopefully no women got pregnant against their will by you.
    Good luck.

    No woman would ever want to get pregnant by a mullah in Iran.

    Well, that part of my message was not essential. The main thing is not
    how to punish the man - the main thing is the dilemma what to do with
    the baby who appeared as the result of rape. The age of the baby IMHO is

    Well in this case there is no question about abortion according her

    Not of course, but a raped woman IMHO has to do all she can to prevent

    AK>> In this case she will not have the dilemma "to kill or not to

    HD> She got pregnant against her will!

    Have you read what I wrote? If she goes to a medical clinic after rape
    they can make her a procedure to prevent her pregnancy from scratch. She should not think that the case will be resolved by doing nothing. She
    should think of her unwanted pregnancy right after rape. It is not the Binomial theorem.

    a featus is not a human, why we should persecute somebody?

    I repeat that every woman knows that as a result of rape she can be
    pregnant, and she has time to prevent pregnancy from starting.

    Hello David,

    It is women, not men who abort babies.

    I wonder how hard abortions would be to get if it was the males that
    carried
    the foetus...

    Do you? Do you really?

    Yes - only casually of course, it is not keeping me up at night worrying.

    Well, with three Chinese warships in Sydney harbor ... with hundreds
    of horny Chinese sailors on board ...

    PS: Besides, nowadays any sexual culprit can be traced by a > DNA test.

    Does that make an unwanted pregnancy any easier for the woman?

    If she is forced to carry it to term, what does it matter?

    Indeed.

    Just imagine the bondings those Aussie gals could make with those
    dashing young men from China ...

    That's nearly 1000 miles from here. I won't see any of such behaviour.

    There are already a lot of people of Chinese origin living/studying in Australia. From my observations they don't tend to "bond" outside of their culture.

    As I am not an "Aussie gal" I guess it doesn't affect me at all. I won't be legally forced to carry an unwanted pregnancy to term. Then again nor will the Aussie gals, abortion is quite legal in all Australian states.

    Today many women bear via a cesarean section. Very convenient. You take

    My daughter runs the delivery ward :-) of a major hospital. She says "bullshit".

    1) The natural way for childbirth, vaginal. is the healthiest and is by far
    to be prefered.

    2) A Ceasarian section is a major abdominal operation with all the possible
    consequences. You make it sound like a game, it is not. Opt-in or opt-out,
    forget it. This is not a TV-show.

    I think both parts see the reasons why women use it more and more

    IMHO, the main feature of a Cesarean section is that everything is under
    full control during the operation. Actually, this operation a nice
    candidate for future robotic operations.

    WD> "Some scientist..."... I can probably compile an interesting

    But there is statistics that speaks of steady increasing of the number
    such operations. The main reason - a woman can choose it by herself.

    Alexander,

    Everything is not under full control during the operation. There's very little talk about the times things go wrong ... my daughter can tell stories about incompetent gynaecologists...

    But there is statistics that speaks of steady increasing of the number
    such operations. The main reason - a woman can choose it by herself.

    Hogwash.

    Because of good medical care babies carried to full term are now bigger and bigger, there's just so much that can go through the pelvic opening.

    Second reason is that docters can charge more for a Ceasarian section.

    Third is it is becoming fashionable for women ... no scar tissue etc ... but the baby is missing out on some hormones and special vitamins essential for infants. For example Vitamin-K.

    The statistical proof to make that statement is largely absent.

    Hello Ward,

    Nevertheless ... no woman should ever be forcibly be committed to a child
    she
    did not willingly produce.

    I would have to agree. As a rule I am against abortion except in cases where there was rape, incest, or where the result would likely end in the death of the mother. I do think though that unborn children should not be punished simply because they were unexpected, or inconvenient.

    Contrary to opinons, beliefs are often based on religion and religious believers usually have an urge to "convert" non believers. In the past not only by word, but also by the sword. Nowadays what we see now in the US is that instead of the sword, the law is used to impose beliefs on others. Many states are adopting laws that make abortion almost impossible. By democratically elected lawmakers...

    Yes... Religion, and big company America. Not to mention the mainstream US media. IMHO,the current push is from the politicians that feed and pay the media to tell the public what they are supposed to think happened, what they are supposed to believe, and who they are suppose to blame for it all.

    Sadly, as many have stated over the years. America will not be defeated by force. The way to defeat America is from within. That I fear has been slowly happening for awhile now.
