The only time this is true is when someone makes the argument that you must let them live with you. Has that happened?

False equivalency. Even the left usually doesn't use arguments this shitty.

Let me find me a hammer cause you got the nail. The thing about protests, they guarantee absolutely nothing with their intent. Money, opening up your home, volunteering to help out in whatever manner, those are tangible things that have an effect on the intent.

frick that. If they are truly refugees then the young men should be back home fighting for their homeland.

I cringe watching those photos of refugees where it's droves of young men. It makes no sense.

Here's one:



I'd be curious to hear how many pro-lifers on here would agree to raise a random person's baby if they couldn't abort it

Yes it does.
They're not refugees. They're an invasion force.

So basically, adoption? Yeah, trump is going to outlaw it too.

Dumbassery on this board grows with each passing day.

I know several married couples that can't have their own children that would adopt a child. Not a very valid comparison.

When Americans are going to other countries because it's so hard to adopt here, I'd imagine the number would be quite high.

Then don't make an emotional argument based on "feelings" of helping others, yet do absolutely nothing to help those people are, oh so desperately championing for.

It's like talking all kinds of smack about helping the homeless dude on the corner, and damning those who don't want to give him money, yet you won't help himself yourself either. How much do actually care at that point?

But they will be living within a close vicinity of someone. And if they cannot be properly vetted, which the FBI has already come out and said they couldn't be, then I see no point in risking it (even if the risk is small).

Why do they even need to come here? There are MANY other suitable countries much closer to where they are.

When a proper vetting situation is in place, then resume helping. Until then, there no sense in bringing in people who we have no idea who they are, who they are affiliated with, etc...

But would you? (assuming you're for outlawing abortion)

What? I never said the right to adopt a child was under threat. I simply pointed out that most of the people who think abortion should be illegal would not be willing to house and raise a random child that wasn't aborted because of the law. Nor do I think they should have to be willing to do that in order to voice their opinion on abortion. But if you think these protesters are being hypocrites because they aren't willing to house refugees, then you're also being hypocritical if you wouldn't house a baby.

I thought that was a pretty simple concept but apparently some of you are struggling with it

Well considering that my taxes already raise thousands of kids that weren't aborted, what is one more? It is better than my taxes being used for the abortion.
