    That was a big part of what led me to see you as a hypocrite. You were so big on compromise, but ignored my compromises on both abortion and gun control. Don't worry about it now at this point.
    I honestly do not remember a proposed compromise. I remember you being adamant that anyone proposing gun control was "taking guns," that there was no source we would both trust to do the currently prohibited necessary research, and that abortion should be made illegal - period - because it's murder. I understand (I think) your position. I don't agree with it - and I do think there is room for motion on both sides. I just don't recall you expressing any willingness to meet partway on the matter.

    I have gone back (somewhat quickly) through the thread and I am not finding it. If what I just reflected back is not an accurate reflection of your views - then I most certainly missed something.

    The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King

Meanwhile, in the actual world, Trump has been president for a year with both republicans and democrats salivating at the thought of nuclear war with Russia over Hillary Clinton's honor
      and Trump has yet to actually start a war.
      If Hillary Clinton was president there would be slave markets in ISIS controlled Damascus right now, just like she teamed up with Bush to create ISIS and slave markets in Iraq and teamed up with Obama to create anarchy (and more slave markets) in Libya.
      Oh right! You mean like the human trafficking and pedophile ring at the pizza parlour Hillary ran.

        I don't do speculative "would haves." IMO, they are pointless. One side says "would have;" the other says "wouldn't have;" and both insist they are right and neither can prove anything. They are usually just exercises in political self-stimulation.
        Posts of yours are usually plain idiotic.
        Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.

          My compromises were not something that any opposition would accept so it does not matter.

              And just imagine how little it matters now!!!!
              The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
