c) other
Adults who prey on children
Internet
Parents who abuse their children
Children with issues that are ignored
And the list goes on.
Many children and 18 year olds aren't living in a world full of guns. It's not reality for all.
Keep preaching that guns are the main thing wrong for children and the reality of what's wrong in many children's lives will be ignored.

And that mask thing... give it a rest. What's right for you isn't for everyone. Yep....

@SW-User that is lies, and it seems designed to make others go hurt someone.
Obviously you are conservative, misinforming us.
SW-User
@Changeisgonnacome Haha!!
Can't have anyone seeing things from a different view, can we now? But seriously... you seem a bit trollish. Have a good one.

@SW-User I agree, but republicans oppose universal healthcare too sooooooo
SW-User
@BlueVeins Sooooooo that would include birth control so we can do away with abortion excuses?
BlueVeins · 22-25
@SW-User Having access to birth control overwhelmingly reduces abortions, and having comprehensive sex ed that teaches kids to use it reduces abortions by even more. Realistically, you won't get down to 0 unless you've got a magic birth control method that's 100% effective [i]and[/i] can prevent all rapes, but yeah, reducing abortions is one of the big reasons why Democrats are in favor of these measures.

@BlueVeins and you shifted the topic! Guns are the topic. Obviously conservatives are shifty on that.
SW-User
@BlueVeins Is that right? Then who is still voting to keep abortions legal?
BlueVeins · 22-25
@SW-User
-people who aren't ravenously hateful towards rape victims
-people who understand that comprehensive sex ed isn't the norm in schools today
-people who understand that not everyone has access to birth control
-people who know that no birth control is 100% effective

@Changeisgonnacome from healthcare to healthcare? do tell.

@BlueVeins guns. You dramatically shift away again. Guns-. Can you focus, or are you conservative?
SW-User
@BlueVeins If you have access to abortion, you surely have access to birth control. Most times, they are both from same providers...like that precious planned parenthood.
I am not coming back to this anymore.

@SW-User guns. Shifting away again. The topic is guns.
SW-User
@Changeisgonnacome Are you policing this topic? If not......

@SW-User Doctors won't usually give vasectomies to young men without extensive counseling & years of requesting it beforehand. The same isn't true of abortions.
SW-User
@BlueVeins keep your zipper shut til you wish to be a daddy. Seriously....done with this.
Changeisgonnacome · 61-69, F
@BlueVeins going everywhere but the issue-. Which is guns-. Gross.
Changeisgonnacome · 61-69, F
@SW-User the issue is the gun problem. Drama to avoid it from you.
BlueVeins · 22-25
@Changeisgonnacome It's almost like a problem can somehow have multiple causes. Weird.
BlueVeins · 22-25
@SW-User That sure is a creative way of retreating from an argument when you lose.
SW-User
@BlueVeins You really are acting ignorant. Can't control yourself?
Blocking you now since you don't take huge hints very well.
@SW-User Right, because rapists [b]always[/b] bring birth control along. 🙄
SW-User
@bijouxbroussard rape is not even close to the main reason for abortions. It's a poor excuse to try to validate abortions.
@SW-User Rape is underreported in many circumstances. The few times I accompanied young women into PP as a volunteer for those procedures (and not birth control or exams), it was the result of assault, a couple of times forced incest. The youngest I recall was 13. If it happens at all as a result of rape (and it does), that justifies the safe procedure being available. It’s easy to be judgmental about it when you’re contributing nothing else.

@bijouxbroussard This coming from a person who claims that others value firearms over their children. You are judgmental in a few ways... and you have no clue what I contribute in daily life or anything about me... no clue.
What I will tell you is that abortion is not birth control for every day use... but... I will not claim to have all the answers for those who truly have been raped. I just don't believe that it should be allowed for those who choose to have sex and just don't want the child.
@SW-User [quote]This coming from a person who claims that others value firearms over their children. [/quote]

Based upon results, it’s [b]true[/b]. Look at how much effort was put into taking away a woman’s right to choose whether or not she gives birth, while fighting any laws that might protect [b]wanted[/b] children from being shot to death at school. You [b]bet[/b] I judge that hypocrisy.

[quote] and you have no clue what I contribute in daily life or anything about me... no clue. [/quote]

That’s true, perhaps you’ve adopted a houseful of unwanted children, or are a regular foster parent in the overburdened foster care system. Otherwise, what I say stands.

[quote] What I will tell you is that abortion is not birth control for every day use... but... I will not claim to have all the answers for those who truly have been raped.[/quote]

And it [b]isn’t[/b]. It’s a medical procedure. And you really don’t "have all the answers" for any of them because you can’t know their circumstances outside of their being pregnant.

[quote] I just don't believe that it should be allowed for those who choose to have sex and just don't want the child.[/quote]

Are you also proposing incarcerating pregnant women to make sure they don’t abuse their bodies during that nine months ? After all, you’ve judged that they no longer exist as human beings with rights, but as incubators. One thing I remember and know from the days before Roe is that abortions won’t stop just because they will no longer be safe for women and girls. Unfortunate, because that will mean the deaths of some people’s [b]wanted[/b] daughters.
