  @Mickbobcat - this happened in Britain and we're supposedly under a Conservative government over here.

  This kind of 'progressivism' shite has infested British institutions to such a degree that it doesn't matter which party is in power.

  Is it possible for any Country to have “Reasonable” Gun Laws? What would they be?

  so the new biden/harris gun policies are starting to appear.

  it’s not clear yet, what they will be.. some suggestions; confiscate all guns.------buyback programs in each state.. there is much talk on social media that if this happens, the pandemic, + all the riots, + all the damaged property, + all the annual murders in america, - put together-will be like a sunday afternoon picnic, compared to all the deaths and property damage that will result because of “civil uprising” by millions of 2nd amendments advocates and just plain gun lovers.

  americans love guns!.

  It's one thing to ask for 'reasonable' gun laws, it's another to get the American public onside.

  Let's just think this situation through …

  Biden will likely be US president soon, the Democrats having grifted their way to victory, funded by BLM.

  BLM want to defund the police.

  There has been a depressing decline in Democrat cities such as Chicago, San Francisco, Baltimore, etc.

  Why on earth would ordinary Yanks want to give up their guns? The current situation will likely mean that they'll cling on to their guns more, if anything. I believe I read somewhere that gun sales are going through the roof. I don't know if this correct but I wouldn't be surprised if it is, TBH.

  Watchtower to be stripped of Charitable status - good news, and not before time.

  The WTS is a cult, not a charity.

  How many of those deaths are because of COVID?

  How many people died of other causes but happened to have COVID?

  She was a known schizophrenic … Why was she released? - because this is trendy, 'progressive' policy. Treat them in the community.

  Any mentally-ill person who poses a clear danger to others should be locked up in a secure unit.

  All good comments, people.

  Personally, I'd like to see this woman serve a minimum of 30 years, then be put on a plane to Albania.

  This is not justice. She should be locked up for a minimum of a very long time.

  The British criminal justice system urgently needs to be reformed.

  The Importance of Language

  language is obviously a very important thing.

  obviously, language is essential in conveying ideas - without it, we'd be screwed.. but it goes beyond that in terms of its importance.. first, it's a good idea to use accurate language, especially when talking about important things or discussing difficult topics.. second, we should be free to use the words we want to use.

  unfortunately, there is an attempt by certain people to control what words we can and cannot say.

  For older women the distinction may be important, because they don’t stop being “women” when they are no longer fertile - yes, you're right: after menopause, women are still women.

  When I originally said that the vast majority of women have eggs and are fertile, did you honestly think I meant that those women don't go through menopause? I thought that was a given, lol.
  

  Female fertility cannot be disentangled from the word 'woman' because most women are fertile for a certain period of their lives. This isn't difficult to grasp.

  As I understand JK Rowling, she is saying there should be a word that describes someone whose biological sex is female, and that word should be “woman” - As I understand it, Rowling came across the following term in social media: 'people who menstruate'. She mocked it by responding thus: 'mmhh, there used to be a word for that'. She got a lot of verbal abuse, including death threats, apparently.

  A lot of the more extreme debates are just nonsense on both sides - well, not in the recent case of Rowling. She implied that people who menstruate are women, and a bunch of social media activists called her names and made death threats.
  

  How? Most women are not between 15 and 45. Not all women are fertile until 45. Some women are never fertile. I don’t think we need an expert demographer to deduce, from there facts, that most women are not fertile - ok, let me try and reason with you on this.

  The majority of women will be fertile for approximately half their adult lives. This means that the average woman will be fertile for approx. half her adult life.

  Some women are born without a uterus. Some women are born with a uterus but are infertile. Some women are fertile for longer than the average woman. But all these types of women are atypical because they lie outside the average. None of these groups is a majority.

  So, it is intellectually dishonest to try to disentangle female fertility from the word 'woman' because the majority experience fertility in their lives.

  The average woman will be fertile between roughly 15 and 45 years of age. This is the case for the majority of women.

  It is intellectually dishonest to try and disentangle female fertility and women!

  But most women are not fertile - pure nonsense (see above).

  I don’t think “egg provider” is any more problematic than “sperm donor”. It has a reasonable meaning in that context - this is a fair point.

  But there is a tendency for activists to try and disentangle 'female fertility' from 'women' that is having an impact on free speech. Look at the recent case of JK Rowling if you want to know what happens when you disagree.
