Liberals support gun bans and grabs and are anti-2nd amendment freedom stealing dictators. Liberals also support the murder of 60 million unborn and some born babies since 1973. The hypocrites set the example of murdering 60 million babies since 1973 for the children to learn murder is a problem solving tool. Then the hypocritical libturd democrats whine about gun violence and blame the guns instead of their failure to set a good example for children by valuing human life. Democraps teach human life has no value and feign surprise when Chicago has 100’s of murders. Abortion and democrats are deserving of our hatred for causing people to not value human life and the wasted billions of dollars on hospital, policing, etc… they don’t care about the lives snuffed out, as long as they can murder unborn babies.
It is all an matter of perspective. The average welfare payment is somewhere between 36-43K per year. So taking that in nominal terms assuming they live to an average age of 80 every death results in a saving to the taxpayers of $2,160,000 to $2,580,000. The younger they die the more we save. That is a simple reality. In addition, I am willing to bet, if they vote, these “victims” vote Democrat.
Unborn baby? Do you mean a fetus, or an embryo? Let me guess you lack the mental capabilities to differentiate. Well thankfully laws are not made by the simpleminded portion of our population. Good news for you though an “unborn” baby isn’t alive so (yeah) 60 million less murders. I know that’s alot for your mind to process, so let’s say while you do that stay out of politics.
