    There is nothing easy about this situation, are we trying to win an internet dispute or find solutions to a terrible hole in humanity?

    Remember, if you aren't spouting extreme team A propaganda, you are, by default, extreme team B.

    No.. being a fascist makes him a fascist.. the "wall" is a result, not a cause..

    Solutions would be good, but he had a presser yesterday, and all he had to offer was mental counselling for the parents. He had been in charge while these things happen over and over, so he needs to man up and own the fact that he has failed to make a difference. Even Florida passed red flag laws, while Abbott folded on it.

    Ok. And?

    There's not enough people willing to discuss solutions.

    That's the problem. If someone disagrees, then label them as "the other team" and then assume they support every generalized talking point associated with the other team. That line of thinking leads to the confusion they so often demonstrate.

    That's an excellent counter point. Wow. You've really convinced me!! There's such depth to your reply, it may take me a day or two to process all the insight.

    I haven't. I don't want to. If there exists a teeny tiny fraction of lunatics who love the thought of abortion, though, we should probably focus on them.

    First day on a forum? It's typically a back and forth.

    How many posts end with, "If you would like to counter what I've said, hit the post reply button and chime in?"

    people who know nothing about guns shouldn't be posting about them.

    Hey it's the same reason abortion rights people use with men.

    Exactly. Why should it be anything else?

    Again, I'm not telling anyone they SHOULD have an abortion, though that's pretty much an absolute fact if you're pregnant with an unwanted child.
