    Y’all aren’t letting the voters vote on this issue because y’all keep loosing in direct referendums.

    And no — I don’t think a state should be able to vote that young girls should be forced to have their rapists child. That shouldn’t be up for a vote and it’s disgusting that you think it should be.

    There is no state in the union where a child can be forced by the state to have a surgical procedure to alter their gender against the wishes of the parents.

    You’re acting as if crime is a new thing never seen before President Biden took office. When in FACT crime is down, nationwide since he took office.

    I really find your posts un-credible.

    I see you are now making up arguments... No one ever claimed that the child can be forced by the state... However, I did say that some states do not allow the parents to intervene and minors can seek gender affirmation care without parental consent.

    I am not the one that brought up “it’s an election year” to excuse the actions of the individual in the OP. If you don’t want it thrown off course — don’t initiate it

    My rebuttal to the OP was on point to the discussion, as color is always a trigger discussion for the left. The OP article is merely a prime example on how race is always to be included to polarize political discourse during an election cycle.

    Then comes cd8ed with a non sequitur to derail the discussion with an interjection about abortion.

    You and poster SteveN are the ones that injected politics and social issues into a pretty cut and dry crime.

    Then you guys wonder what's wrong with politics in the US. :) This thread got side tracked because of you two.

    It was a response to your comments, like I said — if you don’t want a thread dragged off topic — then stay on topic.

    Old white men shooting people just trying to do their job is an unfortunately common item in America that has dozens of threads in the past few years.

    Feel free to have the last word though, I would hate for you to walk away from this with just your deflections of the OP.

    Is I was an 80+ senior and consumed 24/7 Faux News and read only far RW media, I'd be scared **** less too. Regardless, this is no excuse if it went down as described. Senseless unnecessary death.

    Pathetic excuses aside, violent crime is on the decline. And you using it as an excuse for murder is disgusting.

    Bonus points for telling on yourself. Negative points for you blaming your own derailment on others.

    You are literally claiming that we can murder whoever we want so long as we were scared. That's ****ing insane. Please, please stop defending murder. And, yes, that IS what you have been doing.

    If it was a petty cut and dry crime... why was the color of each of their skin even mentioned?! Because there is political motivation to tie this to race.

    Just because the color of skin was mentioned, doesn't make it a political issue. The man's skin color is a fact.

    The man's skin color is a fact, however neither of the color of their skin had any bearing on the crime itself. It was introduced to illicit an emotional response. A political dog and pony show.

    Only to those who give a fart about it. Seems you need to tell others how they are supposed to act.

    He was outside his home. She was obviously unarmed and retreating. There is no possibility that this qualifies as self defense.

    But he shot her when she wasn't a threat to him.

    At no point in the video that i saw was she even confrontational, she was the exact opposite of that.....
