US Kills 100 innocent Civilians

[Stoked]

Personal experience. My "pro life" friends fit into a pretty neat black and white box. My argument is valid. If you are going to whine and cry about the murder of any innocent fetus then why doesnt carpet bombing the enemy knowing woman and children will be blown to shreds bother you?

I know plenty that it does, unfortunately I know plenty that it doesn't and plenty more that are all for it. I strongly disagree with your "neat little black and white boxes" premise. I just don't see people or the world that way.

But that's OK. We don't need to agree lol.

I agree life overall is very grey. On this issue I have to say personally all of my pro-life friends are pretty black or white. I respect that others may have different experiences. Thats why we share them.

Im sure you know "pro life" people who are hunters, pro-war, ok with carpet bombing/nukes, etc.

I dont know one person that makes anti-abortion statements, and makes a point to call themselves "pro life" who has ever posted or mentioned the killing of kids of middle east, talked about the travesty of nuking the Japanese, etc. I'm sure they exists I just have never come across someone like that.

It's a terrible thing.

First I want to say, I don't believe the U.S. takes civilian deaths lightly. I think they do everything possible to avoid them. Sometimes, in a war zone, with active fighting, such things are unavoidable, especially when the enemy takes no action to protect the civilians in their occupied area and makes no effort to separate themselves from civilians.

That said, the families of those civilians killed almost certainly will have deep and strongly held animosity to the U.S.. The families of those killed will be our future enemies. Not because they hate freedom, but because they see us as the destroyers of their world.

honestly, yikes.

Saddam's atroxities were enabled by the US and UK, you realize this yes?

How about when the CIA takes out democratically elected governments they don't like, creating chaos on an entire continent for decades? Or when they finance and arm terror groups until they become a force to be reckoned with? How about when they invade stable countries, unleashing the terrorists they enabled on the rest of the world? You should write the millions of people living in terror through the US government's direct (e.g. massive classified drone assassination programs), or indirect (supporting the Israeli apartheid), actions about our most pure of intentions. It'll be a comfort as we blow them to bits.

Will Colton ever reply to this
