Hum hum hum.

That... Is a interesting theoretical.

The same group is going to get fucked ether way ain't it?

On one hand I care more about the freedoms of children then pregnant people. On the other hand the effects of repealing child-labor laws is not clear to me.

How do people sit comfortably in government, knowing that they are ignoring real and relevant problems, in favor of pointless legislation about marriage and abortion?

I may be misreading you, but for me, at the very least, legislation about abortion is a big honking deal.  My future may be very different depending on how the laws end up being written.

There's other things that are hugely important, of course, but there is a reason why people get so incensed about this.

I dunno, man, I feel like a woman's right to exercise power over her body and health is pretty important.

Yeah. I know. It really pained me to write that. But in the end, I figured that I cared more about the children right to exercise power over their body and health.

But yeah. This is a 'what offspring do you love more? Because you are never seeing the other one' situation.

I don't get it. Care to explain?

Huh? What is to explain? He gave us a hypothetical that had two horrid horrid options. I just said what option I thought less horrid. Or rather I mused on what option I would pick. I do not think I really found out in the end.

Obviously I would hope this choice would not fall to me, I simply do not have the prospective.

And just allow the abortion only until the fetus' nervous system begin to mature, so you can't kill a thinking being but the women is still free?

OKAY, I can see the abortion-related thing is just too much for you guys to handle.  I'll stick to the labor-related one.  It's far more humorous, in that, it is humorous at all.

That... Was not a option.

Huh? I am sorry I do not understand. I did not see anyone be immature, and since few people actually posted my ego says you are talking about me. Where is the inability to handle it?

All right.  Done arguing, going to go do something else.

Later, dudes.

Okkkkkay.

This was suppose to be about which one to talk about?

That. Is awkward.

I thought it was a debate on what you would rather have less.

Okay. Apparently the op wanted us to change the subject. I thought he had given us a theoretical dilemma of horror.

Hilarity/awkwardness appeared.

I don't want to argue about this with you.  I am not going to reply, because I am too angry about this situation and would just end up shouting incoherently.

Okay?
