In that case of being able to only know pain isn't that basically a zombie in a sense not having any intelligence but still moving?  Also there was a case where the parents wanted the kid but it would have died in 5 seconds after birth cause kidneys and bladder were not forming

I truly hate this argument. I was very young when Reagen was shot, and I didn't learn of this fact til I was much older. It turns out he was surrounded by the Secret Service. Those guys are in the top ten in the world as far as bodyguards go. Yet he still got shot.

And if anyone thinks those crimes could have been prevented if the victims themselves had been carrying guns, I only remind you that the President of the United States was shot last night while surrounded by the best-trained armed guards in the history of the world.

Also arming the teachers seems disruptive.  Not saying they will pull out their guns if the kids misbehave but having them creates this sense of dread in the room.

The argument is poor because of why the Israelies armed their teachers. It wasn't to protect attacks from people with mental health issues, it was to protect from people who know damn well what they're doing.

But the President himself didn't have a gun! Maybe if he had...

Blah. I can definitely see why a gun is pretty much necessary in certain situations, but then there are so many others where it just simply isn't.

The whole arming teachers bs is nothing more than knee jerk reaction bs, and fail to see what the real problem is.

Yeah, loaded firearms in a building full of little kids. What could possibly go wrong?

It's like those loons who argue 9-11 wouldn't have happened if passengers were allowed to carry guns on planes.

Bloody hell. Most people would say that they then armed the kids to protect the teachers, and gave them two years compulsory military service in a geopolitical nightmare.

Also this.

I guess I'm wondering how someone would feel if a woman got pregnant as much as possible, then had an abortion at 4 weeks after conception. I'm not sure why she would do this, but I'm wondering how other pro-choicers feel about this.
I personally wouldn't care at all, excluding the confusion of why she's having so many abortions, and the effect of it on her health.
Barring the whole "why the fuck are you doing this to yourself" argument, a 4 week old foetus doesn't even have a brain. To say that it is wrong to abort it, at least more wrong than it is to kill an ant, is equivalent to arguing that either a) souls exist and the foetus is a person from conception or b) to prevent a person from coming into existence is ethically the same as killing one.

Actually b) is a complicated idea for me, but if it's true that means that a fertile woman not having sex is murder.

I think it's time to stop and admit you have a problem when you're getting your gun policies from a bona fide war zone.

Isn't the benefit of being a stable first world democracy that you don't have to be armed all the time in case of attack?

You may be on to something, maybe we're no longer a "stable 1st world democracy".

Absolutely. The thread title's a bit of a giveaway in that regard. It's a bit like the original fundie submission concept. Look at the pile of fail I found, followed by people jumping in on the stupid...

Very true, but the scariest thing is the Israeli policies were far too moderate/reasoned and had to be massively sexed up / misrepresented to match the NRA rhetoric.
