Bob Gorrell for February 19, 2018

A

Why must we choose one or the other?

Value human life — from a Trump Disciple cartoonist.

As if.

.

This is from the party that made it easier for those with mental problems to own guns.

.

What Trump Disciples really want to ban is health care for those who cannot afford it.

Because they, you know, value human life soooooooooo much.

Gorrell, if you’re so worried about late term abortions, you should send thoughts and prayers.

Just like… well, you know.

Late term abortions.

I don’t want to talk politics. Snerk

The correct answer is “both.” Some of us are pro-life even after the baby is born, not simply pro-life until the baby is born, like you seem to be.

Great… another false equivalency by gestation slavers. A impinges on other peoples choices. B is a personal decision.

One of these is already banned – what are we talking about here?

Late term abortions are to protect the life / health of the woman or for fetal abnormalities. The constant lies about Dems wanting to allow abortions for no medical reason all the way up until birth has resulted in people believing the false equivalency expressed by Gorrell.

Late-term Abortions Are Rare and ’Partial Birth Abortions" Illegal. Why Do They Keep Dominating the Reproductive Rights Debate? http://reason.com/blog/2016/10/21/late-term-abortions-in-america-2016 Easy answer? Shock value. Maybe pictures of gun violence victims should be published…

The problem I have is that military grade weapons designed specifically for killing other people during war, but nonetheless allowed to be legally sold to average citizens, due to a politically biased misinterpretation of 1/2 of the second amendment, is not the same as making a medical decision on a late term abortion. Abortions have been performed as far back as we have recorded history without much fanfare. American evangelical cults seem to be reading between the lines of the bible to get the interpretation that bringing life into the world at all costs — without regard to sustaining it thereafter — is the divine message. Note that there is no universal agreement on the practice from all Christian denominations.

" …

Despite their general opposition to abortion, fundamentalist churches that include the conservative evangelical, Non-denominational, Southern Baptist and Pentecostal movements, do not have a consensus doctrine regarding abortion.

Is this even a question?

Wow.

Since the Congress is better at “Thoughts and Prayers” than legislation, we should convert the Capital into a chapel, Mueller could hear confessions.

If you can’t take care of the already-living, what business do you have forcing people to bring more children into the world. Show that you can protect (or at least make an effort to protect) the ones we already have.

Hey, we Conservatives did our part to bring those children into the world; now it’s the responsibility of you Liberals to care for them. (Just don’t use my tax money.)

Sound as if you don’t actually know what a late-term abortion is about. Maybe you should educate yourself somewhere other than crazyrightwingnutjob.com

Totally a false equivalency.

Ban AR-15s the preferred weapon of American school mass murderers.

These military grade weapons’ only purpose is to kill a lot of people very quickly, and it seems to happen every week. Late term abortions are very rare, and are only performed to save the mother’s life. Why can you conservatives not discuss anything without resorting to some kind of dishonesty?

This is not the way to try and solve either one of these issues. Deceitful, misleading information does not help.

If the “pro-life” wing were so pro-life, then there would be an equal amount of attention paid towards birth control, sex education, and parental leave.

100 cartoons here, and Gorrell, with his twisted right wing logic, continues to be as funny as Sean Hannity or domestic terrorist Wayne LaPierre. I wonder if they share data?

one more reason why we need a dislike button…

Ban B. and there will be no need to ban A. Violence begets violence. If my mother can murder me, anything goes.

A frustrated mother at the end of her rope used to say to an incorrigible child, “I wish you had never been born.” Awful, but she still instilled in the child the idea that his life was not willed by Man but by God.

Now that mother can say, “I should have aborted you.” Horrible, because she instills in the child that his life is merely in the hands of Man. And if his life is in the hands of Man, all life is in the hands of Man, and if he decides to be “that Man,” so be it.

We keep hearing that civilian AR-15s are not “assault weapons.” The ONLY difference between civilian AR-15s and military M16s is that the M16 can be fired on fully automatic (it keeps firing as long as you keep the trigger depressed) while, with the civilian weapon, you have to keep squeezing the trigger for each shot (which can be done quite rapidly) and that semi-automatic is more accurate. They both fire the same 5.56mm ammunition (very slightly sub .22 caliber), which is designed for high velocity and deep penetration.

While the M14 uses 7.62mm ammunition, which does have a higher velocity and stronger impact than the 5.56mm ammunition of the M16 (and is preferred by snipers to the M16), the M16 was designed because both it and it’s ammunition is much lighter, so you can carry more ammo, as demonstrated by some of the mass shooters.

Saying that the civilian AR-15 is not an assault weapon is simply a semantical trick to pretend that being shot with an “assault rifle” is much worse that being shot with an AR-15.

A. No question.

^ Well, then, why don’t we just change people? That’s a workable solution.

Abortion is a personal choice, and only one potential life at a time (remember that infant mortality in the US has gotten worse). But the GOP favors, or at least doesn’t even pretend to grief (oh yeah – forgot all those ‘thoughts and prayers’) mass shootings are much more efficient as many more can be killed at one time.[ More bang for the [NRA] buck.
