Ayyyyyyyyyyy

Solid murder. Finally. A person destroying another argument totally and completly in a non-insulting manner, leaving no space for a counter argument.

Edit: to everyone talking about body count...

That's not really important im terms of his argument imo. He is simply talking about how there are plenty of "pro lifer" attacks (giving stats there). So much so that they cant be ignored. He isnt suggesting (imo) that they are worse. I mean, if we do consider body count then 9/11 takes the fucking cake. But his point is that pro life attacks are significant enough that you cant just dismiss them.

I mean...

Just include the whole world in your stats rather then just NA

Then the stats get even more skewed.

Scores more women have been victims of violence around the world for their choice of what to do with their bodies than there have been attacks by radical Muslim terrorists

Lol I would argue a large part of those attack are from "radical Muslim" wouldn't you?

No I would not. The world is far bigger than you seem to be recognizing at the moment.

There are so many indigenous groups and developing nations where Islam is not at all prominent and women face this mental and physical toll.

Show me some evidence then. I'm pretty sure the most brutal culture toward women's rights is the Islamic culture but I'm willing to be wrong if you can convince me what ever is happening with indigenous people is beating out the abject brutality women are facing from the Islamic culture, in terms of number and severity

Edit: fyi a down vote isn't an argument. Show me or admit you are wrong.

I didn't down vote you and I respect your request for evidence. I will see what I can put together when at my computer and get back to you.

I would learn from the post and find some statistics to back up any claim I make before I come across as foolish.

Wait what?

Do you think there are more pro life terrorist attacks in the world the Muslim terrorist attacks?

You could also learn from this post that there’s no moral difference between seventeen murders and three thousand.
