“So Representative King, it’s our opinion that children are only born out of wedlock? Really?”

No. Read what he wrote and think about it. He is talking about one’s genealogy all way back to Adam and the probability that incest played a role somewhere along that genealogical chain.

It is kind of an academic argument as one has little info one way or the other what happened hundreds and thousands of years ago as it relates to their detailed genealogy.

"It's not the baby's fault for the sin of the father, or of the mother," he said.

If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools...

Do you want a Democrat Congress? Because this is how you get a Democrat Congress.

Is what he is saying statistically accurate? Probably.

What he said is politically stupid.

What he said is something only an idiot would voice in public.

Almost certainly.

Truth is truth.

Here's another truth: Leftists in the 'Rat Party and the 'Rat Media will try to destroy us no matter what we say or do.

I'm tired of pusillanimous poltroons on supposed 'right' having the vapors and pissing their pants every time somebody on the right bluntly utters an inconvenient truth.

Act like you've got a pair.

I understand this point that several have made, but I do look at it a little differently.

If a woman intends to have “X” kids, she’ll have “X” kids.

If she was raped, there was incest, or she had kids out of wedlock, or she gets married, she’ll probably have those “X” number of kids.

Whether I was born or not, another kid would likely have been, and it really isn’t all that important that I specifically was born.

His point is that we shouldn’t abort. I think it’s a reasoned point. I don’t care for the rape incest inclusive argument.

Others do, and that’s fine.

“Whether I was born or not, another kid would likely have been, and it really isn’t all that important that I specifically was born.”

Interesting perspective. I would think most people would disagree with you. Each of us are unique souls.

Also many children born are not planned so I don’t agree with your premise that if a woman intends to have “x” kids, she’ll have “x” kids.

Have a nice evening.

Rape, pillage, plunder and murder.

From Ghengis Khan to the Russians (WW2)& Japanese (WW2) to ISIS to the criminals the Democrat Party defends via “redistributive justice”. Seems they all have a lot in common.

And you wonder why you never got that promotion, don’t you.

It because you never learned that just because something might be true, you don’t need to announce it to the world in a vulgar way...just to get attention.

Do try to avoid projecting your personal problems on those of us who don't have them.

Dude, I ran my own business and retired at 58. I don’t have your problem. People actually like me. And they always liked the fact that I worked with facts and not stupid emotions.

Have fun at work today. Greeter at Walmart, right? Don’t worry, there is always dignity in working well past your “expire” date.

This is moronic. Usually when I hear whining on TV about such things I figure we have another mountain out of a molehill by liberals.

But then I saw the film and heard it; this is truly moronic.

Okay, then I should have said “X” or more.

Thanks for the additional comments.
