%85 of the Americans are approving abortion under certain conditions and some are calling them baby killers...

You are taking a wide liberty with that statistic and spinning it to infer something that it does not...

85% of "approval" is actually 34% of Americans favoring abortion under any circumstance, while 51% of Americans approve of abortion up to the first trimester which is the most popular scientific consensus of when life actually begins... After the first trimester, approval plummets to 37% for the second trimester, and 22% for the third...

So, majorities of Americans actually oppose abortion in both the second (55% oppose) and third trimester (70% oppose) precisely because they regard it as murder at some point...

What is happening in the war in Ukraine?

I'm willing to bet nothing good is happening in Ukraine..... Or we would be hearing about it after sending $60Bil more into the conflict.

So does Europe, for the most part. As secular as Europe is, abortion is largely banned by some time in the 2nd trimester almost everywhere. Only VERY Roman Catholic Poland and Portugal ban abortion outright.

How do you capture an intact tank, esp. a modernized version?

I'm not trying to spin anything.
Read my post again.
I said under certain conditions!

Crossone, did you also notice that none of the young men holding the flag off of the ground were wearing masks.

As most of the “protesters” were. The cowards are not brave enough to stand behind their convictions and show their face. Many paid rabble rousers in each of those crowds.

Unfortunately, I agree that the 3 letter government groups that are lead primarily by liberals, (because many come from Ivy League schools too). most likely have all the those brave young men’s faces in the facial recognition data base already. And they will be labeled as the greatest threat to democracy as Biden calls them white supremacy nationalists.

Yes. Brave and proud. I applaud those frat boys but they've stood up against ANTIFA and Brandon's bosses. I hope they don't get crucified for it. Not throwing Lois Learner and her bosses in prison for 50 years was a big mistake. Maybe it started even earlier with Janet Reno and/or Sandy Burglar ?

Also, I don't think guys calling abortion murder are specifying it to be after the first trimester. Heck, they are even trying to ban "Plan B" which is effective only within 72 hours of unprotected sex and its purpose is to prevent conception. Might as well prosecute people for "sin of Onan".

The Arizona legislator just appealed a long standing abortion law. It's headed to the Governor's desk.
The Liberals are absolutely giddy about it.

I’m all about this proposal.

Video of Chinese Manager Beating African Workers Sparks Racism Debate

This is not the first time that such incidents have been reported. In April last year, news agency ANI carried a report that highlighted the ill treatment of African workers by Chinese project managers.

If every country did this, you could travel the world for free!!!

Yes, but you know what happens in other countries if you disrespect their flag. You'll never be seen again.

At what point will we call these professional agitators spreading these leaflets let alone ideas as what they truly are: Terrorists. And when will we deal with and treat them as terrorists?

The WH statement was weak and pandered to the progressive wing as expected...

Ahem, it was the GOP legislature that repealed it. Are they also libtards and RINOS?

 

[Tanks]

Libtard justification for baby murdering is always interesting......

According to the info above, 85% of people are fine with abortion in the first trimester. If all are "libtards", I am surprised that any Republican get elected.

Or just maybe, not every Republican is to the right of Genghis Khan like some here.

Another crisis sweeping across this country.
The homelessness in Tucson is spiraling out of control.
The city of Tucson mayor, and the Tucson Police department, are about as useful as the proverbial screen door on a Submarine.
Crime, drugs, homelessness, illegal immigration, have become a plague here.

Tucson restaurant owner says business owners being punished for skyrocketing homeless crisis

Tucson business owner Grant Krueger explained how the homelessness crisis has caused crime to skyrocket and has driven away customers from his restaurants.

Repealing a law from before Arizona was a state seems to be very pro-states rights to me.
