You know how annoying it is when people try to teach you all about their religious beliefs? You know how you get sick of hearing about Jesus/Allah?
That's exactly how other people feel about you when you start to proselytize with your beliefs. I won't wave my religion in your face and would appreciate if you would extend the same courtesy.
I never thought of it that way before. That's a very apt comparison. They're both groups of annoying assholes who do far more harm than good to the causes that they claim to care about.
Fracking takes place so far below the water table that if they want to protect the purity of their water, all the have to do is place tough standards on how well the fracking wells are lined.
I reject the frame that telling people "No, you may not contract a doctor to kill your child, even if it hasn't been born yet" is in any way draconian.
OK. So why would the distribution named Mandrake use a top hat and magic wand as their logo as well as producing a tool called Lothar (Mandrake's in comic friend) if they weren't referencing the comic book character with their efforts?
From what I remember they were looking at getting sued by the family of Mandrake the magician and when they merged with connectiva, it was the perfect time for a name change.
Of course I'm right. I deal in facts, not fabrications and slander. Too bad you can't say the same. Well, I suppose you *could* say it, but that would be a fabrication.
...who couldn't keep her own teenage daughter from getting pregnant during her political campaign
You're wrong again. Bristol Palin gave birth in December 2008. She got pregnant in the spring of 2008, Sarah wasn't a part of the campaign until August 2008. To spell it out for you, she didn't get pregnant during the campaign. Just to save myself the trouble of correcting you later, the election took place in November 2008, so she didn't have her baby out of wedlock during the campaign either.
But don't let facts get in the way of your hate and vitriol.
Whereas you probably preferred an ignorant former alcoholic puppet who couldn't react well in emergencies and an equally ignorant schizophrenic religious nutcase who couldn't keep her own teenage daughter from getting pregnant out of wedlock and divorcing a year after the shotgun wedding.
You are not even getting the basic facts right. Bristol Palin was never married to Levi. They had an on again/off again engagement but never married.
I would bet that you're one of those Palin haters who can't identify which quotes were hers and which were Tina Fey's.

Entrapment isn't tricking someone into going somewhere that you have the authority to arrest them.

So, if I (while located within the USA) sell some WWII memorabilia to someone in Europe, I can be prosecuted for violating the German swastika ban?
BOLLOCKS!

I don't see why people are so willing to spend that kind of money to get screwed over.
LK
That tells us far more about you than Justice Scalia.
He's an originalist, a strict constructionist.
You are an uninformed asshole who has a need to label and pigeonhole based on your myopic world view.
LK
No. The NRA wants every law abiding citizen to have the *choice* of whether or not to own firearms.
LK
Then you're not really paying attention.
While the NRA wants to be pretty much free from the dictated rules of others, PETA wants to be the one dictating.
NRA: Leave us alone, we're doing our thing.
PETA: Stop what you're doing or we'll harass you.
See the difference?

Bravo.

So, are beer bellies tumors?

You have clearly missed the point you cretin.

There are no age checks on condoms, which have the added benefit of protecting against STDs.
We tell people that they can't use their bodies to beat others to death with their fists.

"No you may not punish this child for your own lack of foresight."

I reject the frames that we're talking about the woman's body and that it's a clump of cells.
The child growing inside of her is a separate and distinct organism. She can do whatever she wants with her body, just leave the baby out of it.
By the time a woman misses her first period, the child inside of her already has a beating heart. Clumps of cells do not have organs.

I should have taken the time to Google it but yes, it was pretty obvious that they were intruding on someone else's trademarked material.

No, the NSSF is the gun makers' lobby. The NRA is the gun buyers' lobby.

a sudden outbreak of common sense.
There will soon be bipartisan proposals to counter it.

I don't hate her. I am afraid of her and the people who support her.
And that's the crux of the matter. Fear is not rational.
