  13. Re:I guess this rules out the U.S. then... on New License Forbids Human Rights Violations? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Someone is going to explane to me why 'pro-choice' only applies to abortion. Most 'pro-choice' people don't feel that people have the right to chose to have a gun yet the feel that these same people have the right to kill a baby. Both sides on this issue are insane.
