Great point frogger. For child deaths, more are killed by their parents or caregivers than guns.

And still some groups want to outlaw abortion to allow more unwanted children to be born and abused.

I bet an abused child wishes they'd have never been born.

Do you think that American liberals wish they had never been born so they would not have had to grow up in this unfair racist country?

What a stupid and off-topic question, especially today.

No, but some of us have a fond wish for the conservatives who are trying to destroy it.

:yeahthat:

Yes, there are days that abused children wish they weren't born, but if one can work through the depression and trauma, and find the hope, joy, and maybe even some purpose in life, then those days are few in comparison to the number of days they are glad to be born.

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

That's not true of children who are abused from the day they are born. The abuse is constant. Unfortunately, in many cases the abuse stops when they die.

Yes, child abuse is ugly. Bringing unwanted children into the world just keeps the cycle going.

More information coming out about how the family slaughter took place. It could have been much, much worse:

The suspect in custody is the couple’s 15-year-old son, Nehemiah Griego, who authorities believe shot and killed his mother, young brother and two young sisters about 1 a.m. Saturday, and then lay in wait for five hours before ambushing his father when he came home.

The Journal also has learned that authorities believe Nehemiah then put several loaded weapons, including the assault rifle, in the family van with the plan to drive to the nearest Walmart, gun down more people and eventually die in a shootout with police.

But Nehemiah called a friend first, who talked him into meeting at Calvary church, where Nehemiah’s father had been a pastor. It was apparently a Calvary church security officer who contacted 911 about the slayings at the Griego home late Saturday.
