Ben Shapiro at March For Life rally: 'No pro-life person would kill baby Hitler
The Hill ^ | January 18, 2019 | Joe Concha

Posted on 01/18/2019 8:25:20 PM PST by EdnaMode

Conservative radio host Ben Shapiro said Friday at the annual March for Life rally in Washington, D.C., that "no pro-life person would kill baby Hitler" because "baby Hitler was a baby," with the comments quickly going viral on social media.

“The argument, I guess here, is that would you kill baby Hitler?” Shapiro said in answering a question that appeared to be submitted online during a live broadcast at the anti-abortion rally.

“And the truth is that no pro-life person on earth would kill baby Hitler, because baby Hitler wasn’t Hitler, adult Hitler was Hitler. Baby Hitler was a baby," he continued.

"What you presumably want to do with baby Hitler is take baby Hitler out of baby Hitler’s house and move baby Hitler into a better house where he would not grow up to be Hitler, right? That’s the idea.”

And every pro-”choice” person would be willing to kill baby Jesus in Mary’s womb.

It’s a stupid hypothetcal that shouldn’t be entertained as a valid question, because its impossible to know what a baby will do as an adult.

We get time travel working, then this becomes a plausible question to discuss.

Well Deadpool suggested going back in time to kill baby Hitler, in the extended version of Deadpool 2. But then when he actually zapped himself back in time, and found baby Hitler in the hospital nursery, he discovered the reason the baby was so miserable, was because he needed his diaper changed.

Boys From Brazil? “Shut up you ugly b-—h”

Kill a baby Hitler? What if you knew he was the devil?

Actually, he is correct. A Pro-Lifer who accepts the true principle of what it means must accept the fact that a child in itself is innocent of his or her future actions.

I know some folks who have caused nothing except harm and as much as I despise them, wouldn’t have killed them as a Pro-Lifer.

It’s a bitter pill, to carry from my own life the true knowledge of abortion. It has taught me that no matter the acts later in life, the unborn child is truly innocent.

“It’s a stupid hypothetcal that shouldn’t be entertained as a valid question, because its impossible to know what a baby will do as an adult.”

Shapiro still has some MATURING to do. You gave the RIGHT answer.

But to the Left, they are actually thinking along the lines that if Trump isn’t stopped, by any means possible, he’ll soon be another Hitler and start locking up his enemies. That’s why they want him dead, although they would settle for him being out of office.

It’s another way of saying “Do not play God.” God understood who “baby Hitler” was. Nobody else did. And yet God permitted “baby Hitler” to live.

If the world hadn’t seen a “Hitler” it wouldn’t even begin to understand how bad the devil could be.

Rather, only God can know that. Barring such privileged information, one does not choose to kill anyone who has not committed a crime deserving it.

Shapiro is still onto something. It’s the nature vs. nurture question.

Hitler himself turned out to be very spiritually promiscuous. He craved power. It wasn’t that he never was presented the option of believing in either Jesus or the God of the Jews as presented in the Old Testament. He rejected Christianity as too meek, too weak in his taste.

It’s possible that, not launched into the tinderbox of post WWI Germany, Hitler might have become a garden variety sorcerer, and thus less harmful to society. However that situation was awaiting that kind of spark, and if it hadn’t been Hitler, it would have been somebody else.

I don’t think the left is going to like the implications here — present Christ to a person and if they reject, kill them... for only God understood that Hitler wouldn’t repent, unless hypothetically it was in his death throes when it made no more difference to world history.

Ben Shapiro is f-n nuts.....he is his own circular firing squad. He can’t get over being bounced by Steve Brannon while both were at Breitbart. He would do well to join up with Bill Kristol and that other smuglet.....the puny guy with the rug and round glasses?.....I love it when so much time becomes the back end of revenge that condemns these people to the cold, dark corner of irrelevance.......my deepest hope is that Romney will be soon to follow.

Even with time travel, you can’t go back and kill Hitler when he was a shorty. What if a bunch of 100-foot giants start walking the Earth?

What if you knew that your neighbor was planning to fly a plane into the WTC and kill thousands?

could you go back in time and take him out the week beforehand? Would anyone accept your reasoning for killing him?

Why does it have to be “baby hitler”? Why not adolescent Hitler, he was probably already showing signs of being a little sh!t.

When murder becomes acceptable because of conjecture that it’s best for everyone, why reserve it only for a little fetal human and why not present evidence for a case to kill baby fetus? Why is that murder “on demand” unlike any other?

Agreed. It doesn’t accomplish a thing. Libs don’t abort babies because they might be the next Hitler anyhow. They abort babies because they don’t give a damn who they might become.

If testing could show that a baby would be gay, would pro-death abortion fans be OK with that being the reason for terminating a pregnancy?

“Gay” babies couldn’t be protected from genetic discrimination?
