There are plenty of people 24 years old and younger whose abortion would be beneficial to society.
We could start in the ghettos and move from there to the MTV Awards then to San Francisco.

Whaoh, let's start at the beginning. Imagine that we are sane people here, and we selected at thread on abortion at the age of twenty-four weeks. Now, imagine that you found someone proposing that we kill people in ghettos. Now, the literary device used by Billybob is saying that killing at twenty-four weeks is to kill at twenty-four years, which is generally an anti-abortion statement. And, we know that Billybob is no fan of abortion, so it follows that he is not one for the murder of twenty-four year old people. However, I am ?deeply troubled? by the ?enthusiasm? for killing ghetto residents below the age of twenty-four. Billybob, I implore you to refrain from epithets of any sort, racist or otherwise, even as a joke. We are debating abortion, not making provocative statements about race.
