    Easy to say in retrospect. If he were your son and you were trying to connect with him and knew guns were a valid connector, then what?

    They have paintball guns that in some cases look very much like the real thing. They can be fun also.

    To my point that this culture, the one the left has imposed on us, is the problem...



    You nurture a culture of death and devaluing human life and what do you expect?

    Do you have actual stats of viable babies born alive during abortions and then allowed to die?

    That was the old way, but that has been rejected by the citizens and a new culture of inclusion has started to emerge to work to correct the mistakes of the past, and build on he future. All citizens will have equal value and an equal voice whether they can afford to buy influence or not. Its happening now and will continue until the job is done and we all have a fair share for our labors.

    They don't like stats for those types of things. But some have come forward to reveal what has been going on.

    Nah, people rarely die from paintball. It does happen in some cases when people don't follow the safety rules but for the most part its safe.

    That's the idea, it conveys the message with less deaths

    Tal, in a botched abortion is there a point when the doctor should cease being the killer and start being the healer?
