Arguing What Was Never Argued
By  Eric – October 12, 202

*** begin quote ***

As a libertarian, I argue that every adult human being has a natural, inalienable right of ownership over his or her own body – which strikes me as self-evident – and from this premise flows the argument that no one else has any right to force another human being to put anything into their body.

The latter constituting both rape and slavery, in terms of the fundamental principle at issue.

*** end quote ***

Seems like a simple and unarguable principle!

Now tell that to the Gooferment politicians and bureaucrats.  As well as the covidNazis!

GUNS: True equality

I Love My Guns
by Susan Callaway

*** begin quote ***

To start with, about 30 years ago I was attacked and would likely have died if I had not been armed.

At that point the man started to walk toward me, in a few words telling me just how he would hurt me. I raised the shotgun, but he just sneered and said confidently, “you won’t shoot me” and kept coming.

He was still too close to my car, so I aimed the .410 shotgun just over his head and pulled the trigger.

I saw the shocked look, just before I saw the blood on his face and chest where the tiny #6 birdshot had hit him. He turned and ran away, destroying a low ornamental fence in the process, but never even slowing to untangle it from his legs. 

How would the world be better and more peaceful if I had been raped and murdered instead, simply because I had no gun?

*** end quote ***

“Victim disarmament is the view that it is somehow better to see a woman raped in an alley and strangled with her own pantyhose, than see her with a gun in her hand.” — T.D. Melrose

I think this summarizes the argument quite nicely. As someone said: “God made man and woman; Sam Colt made them equal.”

“An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.” — Robert A. Heinlein
