You're the one who brought the absurd into this. Busting up eagle eggs doesn't have anything to do with killing viable human beings, either.

I don't disagree with you at all that at a certain point the fetus is viable outside the womb, and once outside it it becomes a human being. Not very many people disagree with you on that. A few do, sure, but not many. Oh, OK. You had me confused when you said ALL types of abortion procedures...

I can think of several reasons. The obvious one would be that putting them in solitary confinement is preferable to killing them, on the off chance they might be innocent. Not necessarily. And the NFL has proven over and over again, and MLB has only reinforced, video evidence can be wrongly...

Murder - the unlawful killing of another human being Fetus - not a human being

Applying the logic of abortion to that of eagle eggs is flawed logic. If you do that, then using the same logic, all people who eat living things or things that used to be living are guilty of killing living things. Even vegetarians and vegans are guilty of this. Don't get me started on the...

Far less than killing him 20 years earlier would have done. I'm not a big fan of most absolutes in society, like "no death penalty under any circumstances," because there are situations where society demands the death penalty. However, 100 percent has been shown to be faulty, as many a convict...

I'm pretty sure is it illegal to wipe out a bunch of eagle eggs, so I think you are incorrect there. It's not illegal, however, to wipe out a bunch of chicken eggs. Your concepts of who is and is not correctly and accurately using certain terms are themselves highly inaccurate. Those who want to...

In the great cosmological sense, that's true, as conception is an unbroken chain that stretches back nearly to the origin of the Earth, 4.6 billion years ago, and human conception is an unbroken chain dating back to the origin of our species, hundreds of thousands of years ago. Every human sperm...

Of course it does. It is a fundamental right to all sentient life on this planet, that they have the right to reproduce, or not to reproduce. Incorrect. In biological terms, reproduction is the natural process among organisms by which new individuals are generated and the species perpetuated...

Characterizing an unborn fetus as being the same exact thing as a baby is an equally flawed mentality. Thinking that you're still right after having such an obvious and blatant mental flaw pointed out to you is a major character flaw. Abortion and the death penalty are two entirely different...

Conversations often flow, and the topic right along with it, away from the original topic. When the flow is a natural and organic one, that's fine, because that's how people interact normally. When someone comes in and tries to purposely change the topic at hand, that's a problem. In your case...

The only thing we need Dale for is to tell you to either post on-topic and add to the conversation, or quit posting off-topic drivel in an attempt to derail the thread and silence others. Whoops, we don't even need him for that.

You're considered normal by whom? Certainly not by me. If your wants, wishes and urges are not normal, regardless of whether you act on them, I'm not going to consider you as normal.

According to the Bible. I didn't suddenly become a heterosexual the day I lost my virginity, I was straight a really long time before that.

The only time I got a call from Laura was the Laredo thing. Other than that is been a dispatcher every time.

They could create a "Safety Hold" that allows Safety to put people temporarily OOS for Safety reasons, and no one in Dispatch or anywhere else would know the reason. The reasons could be for any number of Safety related issues, not just for Randoms. It could be the driver's license or DOT...

Because that would let everyone in Dispatch know you are having a Random. Oh, wait....

I don't know if there is or not, but there certainly should be a temporary or "Safety Hold" for an OOS situation such as that, and then when you come off that you haven't lost any dwell time or anything. It shouldn't change your LL or LA at all. Seems like they should be able to do the same...
