@freemo I don't think there is any founding father who would have disagreed with my assessment. I am a solid supporter of the 2nd, BTW. I favor giving a shotgun and 50 rounds to the homeless and immigrants to defend themselves. From each other, vigilantes, and the state.

But there are limits. The insane should not be armed. Children should not be armed. The 2nd has limits.

@freemo any random Caucasian male over the age of 12, maybe. There is zero chance they would have allowed sales to women, Africans, or anyone that posed any credible threat to the state or propertied white men. That would include hand grenades to children. Who were, in most cases, not allowed to buy anything, although property could be held in trust for them.

@freemo I don't think even the most radical of the founding fathers would agree to giving hand grenades to 3 year olds. I would be hard pressed to find anyone who would support that now.

@trinsec I think the only middle ground is "your body, your choice, no exceptions."

@trinsec yes, I intentionally went for opposition. To highlight why rights are important. And to level the playing field when it comes to biological sex.

@trinsec it was. Over now... looks like 10 miles east of us got hit.

@trinsec the 2nd alternative is not an extreme case. The individual has a choice they can make. Donate or not. Any organ, any time they wish. I think the extreme case for the 2nd option is regulations saying they may not let anyone else use their body parts. Even the 1st option could go further... any infractions and you go straight to the organ banks.

@Catelli @Adam_Cadmon1 you forgot Rogue One.

@Radical_EgoCom@kolektiva.social I think that was the guy with his mother, picking up his little brother, who accidentally got in the wrong car?

@Adam_Cadmon1 38 Abbott and Costello movies... not sure how many Charlie Chan movies, or the Mikey Ronnie movies where he is the son of a judge... there are some long running movie series.

I would like to propose a law that requires registration for organ donations, and if paid for by a recipient, duplicate organs like kidneys and lungs can be seized via eminent domain. At the end of life, all your organs can be harvested, and be distributed to the highest bidder.

Alternatively, we can pass a law that says no one has dominion over your body but you, and may not use any part of your body without your absolute consent.

@TeaPain there are almost as many GQP members as any other party.

@lowqualityfacts it doesn't matter what they believe, the FSM believes in THEM.

RA-MEN...

@Radical_EgoCom@kolektiva.social , well, you only need a second bedroom for kids, and you can put them to work...

@jayrosen_nyu , murder mystery tonight??

3rd major storm of the year about to hit. the first one ripped the gates off my fence, the second took down a tree, and this one has every tornado warning sounding off at full volume, warnings to my phone, etc. If I go quiet in 20 mins...

@Radical_EgoCom@kolektiva.social I would say our current prison industrial complex is the worst case of this in modern America, and should be solved with a change in our constitution, eliminating the phrase "except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted" from the 13th amendment.

@Radical_EgoCom@kolektiva.social There are several issues with public services, profit being probably the major one. Ties to corporate profits are probably more insidious. Often, the best course is to keep public services to a minimum, to limit graft.

@Pat @LouisIngenthron ah, my question is what part of speech "dick" would be when insulting someone.

@Pat @LouisIngenthron I'm not sure what a "tone" is, when discussing parts of speech. I'll look it up in the morning.
