Are you pro life?

Post by Sledge »

Are you pro life?

I'm pro life. Let me explain:

I would like to remove things that serve no other purpose than to kill living things: guns.
I would like to mandate things that save lives: COVID-19 vaccines.

Sometimes I get depressed, but for the most part, I'm pro-life.

I do not like deep pits with sharp spikes installed at the bottom.

Because they kill people, of course.

Or, rather, the presence of large amounts of easily available firearms in a society makes it much more likely that people will get killed, kill other people, or succeed in killing themselves.

I agree that they are technically interesting, and I once got a marksmanship badge. But it was won of those 'Been there, done that, got the T-shirt' things. I much rather have learned to play the piano.

Should we be able to use guns for self defense?

Like when those squirrels cross your lawn and give you the evil eye.
