> [@Omg a Black Conservative](#): > > > [@Grey](#): > > > > Omg a Black Conservative given your nonsensical OP seems to be based on poorly documented blog/news stories I’m not about to speak to the judge’s sentencing statement beyond what I’ve done until I read it. You brought it up you go find it. I mean I gave you both the trial and appeal decisions, the sentencing statement is the least you could do. > > The OP isn’t nonsensical. It deals with a specific quote and poses a question based on that quote. I’m sorry (not really), but saying that you refuse to speak to the judge’s sentencing statement is a cop-out. Again I ask you, what does abortion have to do with infanticide and what is the point of mentions Canada’s (lack of) abortion laws have to do with sympathizing with someone who is guilty of infanticide. These are not trick questions. Poppet, not giving you an opinion on a poorly quoted statement is what grownups are suppose to do. Unlike some that boldly spew nonsense over poorly understood 2nd or 3rd hand accounts. I mean who would want to do something stupid like that? ---

> [@Omg\_a\_Black\_Conservative](#): > > DTC was the one who started to play semantics with the whole “It’s not a child!” line. Talk to him before you try to jump on me You are the one who is saying that a fetus is a child. If you are saying that the entirety of a dictionary definition controls what can be called a child for the purposes of the law, then a silly, immature person must also be considered a child for the purposes of the law. If you disagree with this reasoning, then you are the one being inconsistent. ---
