I Dont Understand How You Can Be Pro Life and Pro War

Being pro-life and pro second amendment goes hand in hand actually, because they are both about defending and protecting human life. A baby is a human life whose rights we acknowledge and respect when a criminal takes it (drunk driving for instance), yet we allow the mother to murder her child because it is an "inconvenience" to her and society (tax-payers etc) as a whole. That should not be.

Owning a gun does NOT give one the right to murder another. However, if someone comes into my home or is trying to murder me or my family, it is not only my right, it is my obligation to defend myself/my family. A gun gives me a fighting chance. That's why the police and military and security details use them... because the criminal and/or a tyrannical government has them, therefore we must, in order to effectively protect ourselves.

The second amendment has to do with the right to have weapons. Not to use weapons to kill innocent people. Just like you have the right to use the services of a doctor but not the right to have the doctor kill your unborn child.

your freedom has never been jeopardized in any way by our government or an outside force..once it is, then you will understand..

I mean if someone who has guns can be trusted with them and trusted not to be an asshole with them and going around shooting people, then I don't see a reason why they shouldn't have them. It's their lives and their money. If somebody can't be trusted with them, then that's different. The problem isn't guns so much as it's people. People are the problem as well as mental illness because of how often that gets ignored. Also, this shouldn't be said because of how obvious it is, but if you get rid of guns then that will encourage more people to get guns illegally. It's like with anything else, you ban it and people will want it more. If you get rid of guns, people will find something else to use to hurt and kill people. In England, they don't have a gun problem, but they do have problems with knife attacks and acid attacks. So see, no matter what, people will find another way to harm others. There's just shitty people out there and that's sad. Having to rely on other human beings to not be shitty human beings is a terrible thing.

Probably the same way people justify being pro-choice and anti-war and anti-gun.

We all deserve the right to protect ourselves. Misuse of a weapon to harm an innocent other party isn't a good enough excuse to limit such personal freedom.

The question regarding abortion is about when a human becomes a human and thus entitled to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

I'm really pro choice but because eveyones circumstances are different but if I were staunchly pro-life I would be against killing babies but for killing communists and other brutal dictators

I think if people were honest with their most private thoughts-- a large number of people would admit the desire to liquidate, eliminate, whole groups of people. Fellow citizens. That's really unrelated to abortion, war, 2A-- but it's related in that there's a violent hateful underbelly to most societies. And that makes abortion, war, 2A more than meets the eye.

What do you think of the issues?

I'm pro choice. In other words, I don't think it's up to me as a guy to tell you what you can or can't do with your body. As for guns, well I have a concealed carry permit and I regularly carry a gun with me wherever I go.

You're comparing apples to hula-hoops. One is advocating for the most innocent life in existence. The other is defending against the guilty.
And no one is pro war.

I don’t see how anyone can claim to be pro-life and support the death penalty. Under the right circumstances a gun might be used to protect and sustain life. But once you have someone in custody and incarcerated, killing them is just [b]revenge[/b]. It doesn’t bring anyone back from the dead.

To save your life from someone else with that gun.

Now as for the group title I can't answer that

How can a person claim to be pro-choice, all the while denying choice to the person most affected, the defenseless child?

because those on the far right don't understand what hypocrisy is. To small minded

I don't view them as exclusive. Would you like to chat?

Guns saves more live than they take

Why won't you talk

Would love to chat
