Hey bud try not to see everything someone says as raising the standard for some particular ideology but rather a more careful assessment of the issue and it's particulars. I know you're 21 so this may not be natural yet, but your body is still changing.

Hey man, at 21 I know not to write apologia for Nathan Bedford Forrest, so you can go gently caress yourself with a Confederate bayonet.

You know you don't treat someone worse when they start to listen at all what their saying? I may be a vulture but at least I'm not a self righteous rear end in a top hat like you three are.

I had transfiguration last night. Abuela appeared to me shimmering in white, and my heart leapt in pride for what I knew what right and good.

I today politically identify as an attack dog. My trigger words are "pro-life" and "Trump." I do not care about your feelings. I am aware of my hypocrisy in this regard. You have had ample time to change, ample time to think about what "your side" was trying to do to women. My own wife had something far less dramatic but related happen recently, and I will post to the attrition of this loving keyboard's endurance browbeating you in this thread until such a time that you repent, I get probated, or you :getout:

Also Tiny, that is a tragedy that happened to your sister in law. Still doesn't change the fact you're a horrible rear end in a top hat. Also frankly if you act this way in real life don't be surprised if failure accompanies you.

Correction, vulture. Die alone. We all die, I'm simply hoping no one in real life has to suffer your company.

You tell other people they should be obligated to carry a rapist's baby. Why do you think that is less awful a thing to say?

Because this is a thing you said.

You keep dancing around that. You think a woman who is raped should be obligated legally to carry her rapist's child to term or she is a murderer.

You are an empathy-less vulture. Sorry. And considering nearly all these laws are justified under some sort of religious pretense, and actively cause deaths, you directly have a hand in causing grave damage to our women's healthcare system in the name of empathy.

I can imagine, just barely, having to wait twenty hours while my child slowly died. I can imagine the sounds of a hospital, especially the sounds of a maternity ward, and imagining hearing over the PA every time a baby was born alive, knowing my baby would not be, is heartbreaking. It would be heartbreaking even at one remove, as someone's sister-in-law. It doesn't change my belief that your niece's death shouldn't have been hastened, unless your sister-in-law's life became endangered. I'm sure you'd say this makes me an empathy-less vulture; it'd be understandable if you did.

There's no excusing the nurses calling her a murderer, not to her face, not behind her back, not in a conversation with someone else years later, though, not even if she hadn't had to wait and had chosen to have her dying child delivered immediately, but especially since she did have to do so. That is appalling; not as appalling as the situation itself, but appalling nevertheless.

Unless you've actually lost a kid this way I doubt you can properly imagine it.

I feel like the previous general stability of the race is making it harder to judge how far the bottom has fallen out on Trump. Since the second debate people keep claiming at various times that "he stopped the bleeding" but I'm not sure how you would even verify that given the short time frame left.
