  • Dahlia Lithwick Uses Recipes to Write a Legal Column About..

    ... ABORTION. Lithwick's very idea that women do not have reproductive choice, if they cannot extinquish the life growing in their own wombs, is in and of itself faulty. I mean, my God, did the female have sex with the guy, or did she not? As to being ''for change'' in everything but pro-Abort American policies at home and abroad, not everyone ...

  • The Cost Of Reckless Sexual Appetite

    The Abortion Cartell is making Billions on plaing their bets between a zipper vs a knife. Now the Cartell prospers in the same fashion as the Bank prospers when one bounces a check. In the end does it really matter if it was by accident or reckless disregard? If an honest mistake, one can call the Bank and pleads one's case for mercy. ...

  • How can murder be "moral"?

    I don't understand where there is ''morality'' in abortion. Even if you can somehow muster up an excuse for the murder of the unborn, but where is the morality here? I can never understand why this is called ''a mothers right to choose'' - who has a right to choose someone ELSE'S life? That the baby is safely within the mother's womb gives the ...

  • Murder?

    This is weak writing. You can't murder an animal. The object of 'murder' as an act is a human. This writer is trying to change the meaning of a word that is well defined. This cannot be done axiomatically. There is no murder here.

  • Re: Getting Stoned -- to death

    steambadger: Not only is stoning cost-effective, but it involves the entire community. Aw... that's so sweet! Everybody coming together, all races and religions, in a common effort to batter some guy to death. Sort of like a barn raising, only in reverse. Heh heh, kids today, ya know, by cracky, in my day we called that sort of thing a ...

  • africa

    If global warming causes wars and violence, then since al gore burns hundreds of times more fuel with his mcmansions and all his air travel than me, a lonely bachelor in a 500sqft studio, I guess he is proportionately responsible for more murders and mayhem than me, so i'll sleep a little better tonight. Can you buy carbon offsets for murder?

  • What's behind murder rate increase?

    Although the incidence rate for lesser crimes has continued to fall (very slowly) in recent years, the murder rate has risen. After hitting a modern low in 2000, the murder rate has risen from 5.5 to 5.7. That's still not that bad compared to levels almost twice as high towards the end of the failed Reaganomic experiment, but it does compare ...

  • "Rejection" doesn't usually include murder...

    I don't think you understand the actual issue at hand... It's not about ''some obscure clan'' not wanting a kid around; it's that against his wishes, the film crew created a scene that will result in extreme violence and assassination attempts if he is in his home country after the movie is released. There's a huge difference between being ...

  • A Nation of Murderers?

    Sam Brownback hammered Mitt Romney today for refusing to call abortion ''murder.'' But that makes me think. I've read that there have been 40 million legal abortions since Roe v Wade in 1973. If Brownback thinks abortion is murder, wouldn't he believe that all of the 30 million or so women who got abortions (accounting for repeat cases) and all ...
