@vrgldh It's not an easy solution anyway you slice it.
A constitutional amendment is the only concrete path forward for those who claim to abide by the rule of law.
However, severely limiting the welfare state and aligning such incentives are probably good Band-Aids
34 American sailors killed, 171 wounded. An American Navy ship was attacked in international waters. Yet decades later, much of the country still knows little about the USS Liberty.
The USS Liberty remains one of the most egregious attacks ever carried out against U.S. military personnel, with questions that have never been fully answered and accountability that never came.
Rep. Thomas Massie recently brought renewed attention to the incident, honoring the survivors on the House floor and calling for further investigation into the attack.
As Congress is about to vote on an even deeper and more permanent military alliance with Israel, the USS Liberty story should not be forgotten, especially as Israel continues to dispute and downplay the significance of the attack.
I discuss this and more with @danielmkovalik.
He didn't kill a kid. They killed a fetus. I'm tired of equating the two. They're not the same. It's sick to act like a fully formed baby is equal to a developing fetus. Pro life people are sick freaks who delight in forcing people to raise children they don't want to.
You cannot claim that youโre aborting your Down syndrome child because you donโt want him to โsuffer.โ First of all, killing a child so they donโt suffer is psychopath serial killer logic. Youโre on the same moral plane as Andrea Yates. Second, children with Down syndrome are famously some of the happiest people youโll ever meet in your life. They are not in fact living in a state of perpetual torment. So whatโs really happening is that youโre killing your child so that YOU wonโt suffer the inconvenience of caring for him. This is about freeing yourself of your own perceived suffering. If youโre going to be a child killing sociopath, at least be honest about it.
