(XLNT ?) Why should buying a gun be any easier than having an abortion?"

This is Linda from Oklahoma:

"Why do lawmakers make it harder and harder to get an abortion, even in the cases where the mother will die, but easier and easier to get a gun? Do they only care about a life before it is born?

Why don't gun buyers have to follow the same rules women are forced to follow? Wait 48 hours after applying. View on ultrasound of a body with a bullet in it. Listen to the heartbeat of someone as they die of a gunshot wound. Get a lecture from a surgeon on what it is like to operate on a gunshot wound. After all that, if a person still wants a gun, he or she can buy one. Why should buying a gun be any easier than having an abortion?"

First of all, you just conceded our every point about abortion: it takes human life.

Second, most of the controls you list, such as waiting periods, do in fact exist. If it's OK to wait 3 days to get a gun then it's OK to wait 3 days to get an abortion.

Third, you have to attend classes to get a CCW.

Fourth, guns for defense are only intended kill bad people; abortion kills the innocent and only the innocent. We oppose abortion even if we could peer into the future and learn that the fetus would grow-up to be a hoodie-wearing, skittle carrying, gold-toothed wannabe thug.

3. There's a 10-day wait to buy a gun in my state

And you have to produce not only a state-issued ID but two additional pieces of proof of residence.

9. Ask the women who has just put a restraining order on an abusive husband. nt

And now I represent to you the most oblivious and unintentionally ironic post of the day:

11. Yes there are.

And it usually involves stopping someone else's time. Guns are too often a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

And abortion is what, exactly?

10. Getting a gun does not mean you are killing/terminating someone or something

It can be for sport shooting. Abortion only does one thing (and no, I am not anti-abortion, I am one of those people who actually believes in the phrase 'your body, your choice' on many issues and not just one).

For the suggested to work we would have to show ulrtasound/etc to people who wanted to buy condoms or have sex in general.

14. There is a 7 day waiting period to buy any gun in Rhode Island

and you must pay for and pass a state mandated gun safety course.

15. In Nassau County it takes 11.5 Months for the interview

to have a Handgun permit. You really want that process for abortions? IN NYC takes about 6 months minimum, Suffolk co. also 6 months. this just for a the iterviews. One still goes through a federal NICCS check and fills out a ATF form 4473. The article is a stupid comparison frankly.

So, in other words, rich-bitch livin' on the hill (but says she ain't) knows ****-all about abortion and even less about guns; she just copies and pastes wahtever talking points are thrown in front of her cock-sucking-for-her-dinner eyeballs.

I can't recall any such cases ever being in the news.  If there had ever been any, I'm sure they would have been plastered wall-to-wall nationwide by NOW, PP, and every other fetal-death advocacy group.

Do you have any idea how many flowers you have to hit somebody with to kill them?  Frankly, this just isn't practical for anyone but a wholesale florist with a remotely-controlled overhead crane.

Easy DUmmy. Anyone can get an abortion. Try doing that with a gun purchase.

Agree with everythin' ya said, Snuggles, 'cept one thing. I never had to take a class for a CCW. Not sure if ya even have to now, up here.

'Course when i got mine, I was in the bail Bond biz. Ya havta let the gubmint crawl up yer hiney in order to get that license, so could be different for a layman.

Depends on what kind of state you live in. There are "Can issue", "Shall issue", and "Must issue". SC, IIRC, is a "Shall issue" and requires a CCW. GA is a "Must issue" and does not, along with Bama, Mississippi, and many others. I have reciprocity with those states. SC, no reciprocity. Haley needs to fix that crap.
