Highly Regressive

Abortion on demand and euthanasia
  Life as sacred -- out the window

Police-free neighborhoods of guns and gangs
  Innocents shot dead, no remorse, no pangs

Such desecration of Life is highly regressive
  Why, O why, is it deemed 'progressive'

So sad " Innocents shot dead, no remorse, no pangs" and so true.

Totally agree. The bible says the good will be called bad and the bad good. We are seeing this as we scratch our heads in disbelief, my friend! Great!

You know, it wouldn't shock me if anyone who's not LGBTQ or whatever that grouping is, will soon be persecuted for sexual preference dysfunction or some such AOC crap. ~ Pardon my French. :) Poodle

That is a most interesting question, well put, Gershon. Hmmm...I could argue your points, but I won't.

I agree, and I wish we could get back to agreeing to disagree without all of the harsh rhetoric and feelings involved. ;>)

Well, reasonable people can disagree... Nothing unusual about that (until recently, anyway). Smiles, gw
