I'm surprised by how many people think theft or property destruction are proper solutions to this problem. I always thought conservatives valued personal responsibility.

If a parent creates a child, and then says "raising this child responsibly is too hard...I need the government to help me," isn't that contrary to personal responsibility?

I don't think anyone here is saying "raising this child responsibly is too hard..."

I think they're saying "If that pervert in the dirty rain coat tries to come near my child, I'll kill him."

Can you hear us now?
