This is the inevitable problem with giving people rights.

2017-12-19 05:28:27 UTC

Correct, but we must also recognize where our rights come from

2017-12-19 05:28:37 UTC

People are not given rights

2017-12-19 05:29:11 UTC

Rights given are easily taken away. You must be willing to defend your rights by pen or by sword.

2017-12-19 05:29:55 UTC

(Figure of speech. You should use rifles.)

2017-12-19 05:29:57 UTC

No, everyone has rights granted to them solely by existing. The purpose of government is to take away rights that infringe on others

2017-12-19 05:31:12 UTC

The constitution sees the rights as codiefied in it, not granted by it.

2017-12-19 05:31:23 UTC

Exactly

2017-12-19 05:31:30 UTC

Thatโ€™s why the second amendment is there

2017-12-19 05:31:47 UTC

You have the right to protect your own rights, and not rely on the government

2017-12-19 05:32:07 UTC

But the constitution is a piece of paper. The paper needs some steel, propellant and plastic to back it up.

2017-12-19 05:32:13 UTC

Yes.

2017-12-19 05:32:28 UTC

The constitution is a set of beliefs and ideas

2017-12-19 05:32:30 UTC

Well, aluminium too I suppose.

2017-12-19 05:32:34 UTC

And those are impossible to kill

2017-12-19 05:32:44 UTC

Anyways back to my original point

2017-12-19 05:32:53 UTC

The constitution is the foundation of law and order

2017-12-19 05:33:20 UTC

You acknowledge that the government is in place to protect the rights of the innocent, correct?

2017-12-19 05:33:59 UTC

The government is in place to enforce laws, and defend the country from invasion.

2017-12-19 05:34:17 UTC

Should the government protect those who cannot protect themselves?

2017-12-19 05:34:38 UTC

We acknowledge that abortion is killing, after all

2017-12-19 05:34:44 UTC

I don't know. Who are they protecting? What are they protecting them from?

2017-12-19 05:35:17 UTC

The fetus from early termination, without being threatening to the mothers life

2017-12-19 05:35:29 UTC

If it's protecting it from the right to control your own body, sorry.

2017-12-19 05:35:55 UTC

So the rights of property supercedes the rights to life?

2017-12-19 05:36:32 UTC

It's the right to control your body, who uses your organs.

2017-12-19 05:36:42 UTC

tfw it's not just ones own body anymore

2017-12-19 05:36:49 UTC

I don't believe that people's organs should be used against their will.

2017-12-19 05:37:11 UTC

Yes it is, it is separated by a placenta.

2017-12-19 05:37:26 UTC

It is a body supporting another, growing body.

2017-12-19 05:37:30 UTC

So you think itโ€™s fine if a woman knowingly gets pregnant and plans an abortion from day 1?

2017-12-19 05:37:42 UTC

I don't think that people should have unprotected sex if they aren't willing to bear the responsibility to have the child

2017-12-19 05:37:48 UTC

^

2017-12-19 05:38:13 UTC

And I don't believe the government should be in our bedrooms or inside people.

2017-12-19 05:38:23 UTC

I would agree

2017-12-19 05:38:30 UTC

Unless itโ€™s to protect an innocent life

2017-12-19 05:38:45 UTC

Any right can be abrogated for that.

2017-12-19 05:39:04 UTC

Absolutely because life should be held as the highest priority

2017-12-19 05:39:14 UTC

Let me ask you this then

2017-12-19 05:39:20 UTC

lol

2017-12-19 05:39:25 UTC

What rights is the fetus taking away from the mother

2017-12-19 05:39:26 UTC

No, freedom is highest for me.

2017-12-19 05:39:41 UTC

I'm not calling for regulations or the subversion of anyone's rights. People should take responisbility or some fucking birth control

2017-12-19 05:39:46 UTC

You can have as many mass shootings as you want and the 2nd ammendment still stands.

2017-12-19 05:40:01 UTC

All recent mass shootings have happened in gun free zones

2017-12-19 05:40:14 UTC

^^^

2017-12-19 05:40:38 UTC

North Korea and China have few mass shootings.

2017-12-19 05:40:49 UTC

Have you been to China?

2017-12-19 05:40:50 UTC

You CAN stop them.

2017-12-19 05:40:57 UTC

It doesnโ€™t matter

2017-12-19 05:41:03 UTC

But I like the freedom more.

2017-12-19 05:41:07 UTC

Yeah too few people to shoot due to the natural communist starvation.

2017-12-19 05:41:09 UTC

China isnโ€™t built on the foundational citizen rights hat we have

2017-12-19 05:41:13 UTC

The UK has a ban on guns and every year shootings have increased

2017-12-19 05:41:36 UTC

Earlier question: what freedoms is a fetus taking from their mother?

2017-12-19 05:41:51 UTC

China is state capitalist, it has been a long time since they have dared implement their ideology @Anemic Crusader.

2017-12-19 05:42:11 UTC

There is also a lot of crime in China

2017-12-19 05:42:21 UTC

A lot of stabbings and kidnappings

2017-12-19 05:42:31 UTC

But at least guns weren't used!

2017-12-19 05:42:41 UTC

Doesnโ€™t matter

2017-12-19 05:43:01 UTC

please also note that a fetus's mere existance implies consent on behalf of the mother and the father for all the changes neccessary to accomodate its existance

2017-12-19 05:43:01 UTC

I am being sarcastic.

2017-12-19 05:43:02 UTC

To present a more fair argument

2017-12-19 05:43:19 UTC

No it doesn't.

2017-12-19 05:43:25 UTC

I would suggest presenting the number of bullets fired vs the number of bullets resulting in injury for each country

2017-12-19 05:43:29 UTC

People don't consent to HIV.

2017-12-19 05:43:37 UTC

they fucked, unprotected, and didn't use any form of birth control afterwards

2017-12-19 05:43:39 UTC

Or rape.

2017-12-19 05:43:48 UTC

Rape is the only exception

2017-12-19 05:43:53 UTC

That is not consenting to disease, that is undertaking a risky activity.

2017-12-19 05:44:05 UTC

Again, 99% of abortions are convienence abortions

2017-12-19 05:44:16 UTC

Rape isnโ€™t a good metric to use for the majority

2017-12-19 05:44:19 UTC

Also

2017-12-19 05:44:31 UTC

Should we hold the fetus responsible for the sins of the parent?

2017-12-19 05:44:34 UTC

And I don't care what the reason is.

2017-12-19 05:44:46 UTC

The reason for you using your right does not magically erase it.

2017-12-19 05:44:53 UTC

You should absolutely care what the reason is

2017-12-19 05:45:05 UTC

I believe that a person should only have an abortion if it was conceived in rape or they donโ€™t have the sufficient funds to care for a child

2017-12-19 05:45:05 UTC

Using your right = killing a fetus

2017-12-19 05:45:20 UTC

Abortion is not a right

2017-12-19 05:45:27 UTC

The state does not take away rights because people had a bad reason. Nazis and Communists are allowed to speak.

2017-12-19 05:45:39 UTC

Only if they agreed with the state

2017-12-19 05:45:43 UTC

๐Ÿค”

2017-12-19 05:46:06 UTC

Lmao censorship under communism is crazy

2017-12-19 05:46:07 UTC

Who has the US gaoled for free speech?

2017-12-19 05:46:20 UTC

You canโ€™t say anything without fearing the secret police and government

2017-12-19 05:46:20 UTC

The state can take away rights. For instance, in australia we have the right to freedom of movement, that is restricted upon an arrest made by the police

2017-12-19 05:46:31 UTC

Exactly

2017-12-19 05:46:53 UTC

So, someone squirting in you is the same as being arrested?

2017-12-19 05:46:55 UTC

Everyone has natural rights, and the government restricts them when you harm โ€˜societyโ€™

2017-12-19 05:47:02 UTC

You guys are like feminist strawmen.

2017-12-19 05:47:13 UTC

If someone is squirting in you, you are most likely letting them

2017-12-19 05:47:22 UTC

Feminists believe abortion for all reasons

2017-12-19 05:47:24 UTC

Pregnancy is something so easily avoided

2017-12-19 05:47:26 UTC

If you're not letting them then it's rape

2017-12-19 05:48:01 UTC

Do you want a baby? No? Then here, wear this 99cent balloon

2017-12-19 05:48:05 UTC

Done

2017-12-19 05:48:18 UTC

extra worried, wear 3

2017-12-19 05:48:21 UTC

A 99cent balloon vs taking a human life and scarring the mother

2017-12-19 05:48:26 UTC

They want the government to not only pay for their birth control but fund their abortions when not needed
