How much murder is it to bomb school kids in another country? We should seek the death penalty at the highest decision making levels for that.

Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

God demands equal justice!
If they are already out of the womb AND not white? Then it's legitimate defense because they are terrorists.
Hmm? That's not "murder", murder is obviously not allowed? That's "defense". Their Jesus talked a lot about how important that was, just a minute lemme go find it...
Actually God only demands a monetary fine if you cause a miscarriage in someone who didn’t want one (Exodus 21), and requires that you drink a potion that will give you a miscarriage if you got pregnant by someone who isn’t your husband (Numbers 5). If only those Republicans could read their own Bible, they would be very upset.
God says mandatory abortions apparently, hooo boy, Wes Groggins is sure gonna feel like a dope when he hears!
If you live in Missouri and have a daughter, you don’t love your daughter if you don’t leave Missouri.
To be fair, one of the key ways the American South functions - has always functioned - is by trapping people into remaining there.
The systems (not just formal ones, informal ones are more impactful especially in the South) - have only "improved" to superficial degrees since chattel slavery, and are now granted roughly full permission to finally regress and remove the mask.
The rest of the country wonders "what the fuck is up with the misery, almost chosen to be self-sustaining, in the South? Why would anyone thoughtful stay there, why does it stay so bad, too, why don't they make fixes?".
It's always the systems in place that answer those discordant-seeming human choices, the contradictions.
The American South functions - and always has - by the systematic trapping and exploitation of its populace, to a degree always devastatingly more ugly than mere "modern capitalism".
So. A little grace, due, for those who can't just exit. They're working against ~everything. Personal details I can't relate here, but it's unimportant. The trap is, has always, been evident.
Your God sure commits a lot of abortions for a pro-life guy. Maybe take that up with him first?
Yeah, isn’t it something like one in four pregnancies actually makes it to term, naturally?
Two in three is more accurate, but that are still millions
Lmao wtf, like 80+% of Christianity as a thing in the first place is JUST the way Jesus (and, in the telling and by extension - the entire New Testament...?! Hello?) supplants the barbaric nature of the Old.
Whole new covenant, and all? I mean I'm just a godless heathen, guess I oughta take my cues from...checks notes...ahem some horrible prick named Wes Groggins, who sure doesn't sound like a fictional character named to suggest the role "antagonist/heinous troll".
Cool Christians, cool stuff y'all got going on. Jesus would be all over this, just like, "wow, this is my kinda saving souls! Y'all are really killing it down here. Err..." 🙄
I hate this place.
Ah, yes, I remember this part of the Bible. If I remember correctly, the Romans laughed when Jesus promised revenge. And then He jumped off the cross and killed every single person at Golgotha without mercy. And then He marched on Rome and decapitated Emperor Tiberius with His own hands for attempting to stop Jesus. They don't call Him "Vengeful Christ" for nothing.
It stands to reason, then, that the Republicans must exact revenge, as Jesus would've done.
Psychopathic death cultists.
"Pro-life" has never been about protecting life. It was always a means to control women.
I just call it anti-choice.
I call it “forced birth”.
