Just watch a little bit of this video, and listen to the questions that he asks. The "hypocrisy" that he's trying to "prove" doesn't exist. Pro-choice for abortion doesn't mean pro-choice for everything.
In order to make a bunch of average joes look like they're hypocrites, he mentions soda taxes and trans-fat bans. The point is that "democrats must be hypocrites because they want to give women a choice but don't give people a choice about what they want to put in their bodies".But it's not hypocritical, it's just a fact that some things ought to have a law and for other things it's not necessary.
100 years, cocaine was legal and put into sodas. When they found that cocaine was highly addictive and dangerous, they banned it and made it illegal. By this asshole's logic, cocaine should be legal, and people should just choose not to drink soda with cocaine in it if they don't want to.
He's just tricking people into "contradicting" themselves when in reality it's just a play on words. "So you're pro-choice? You must be pro-choice for everything, right?". Flip it around and you can do the same thing to the opposing party. "So you're anti-choice? You must want the government to restrict anything and everything, right?" It's just all a bunch of fucking nonsense to fool stupid people.

| Not even what he said lol. He is asking if people should have the right to personal choice. It's a very broad question.

Abortion should be legal.
But only before the fetus reaches a certain point of development.
Stupid argument that should have been settled ages ago.
And yeah, if ran a country I'd make drugs completely legal, then tax the hell out of them.
If people want to do drugs they'll do drugs whether it's legal or not.

It's not very hard to point out the fallacies, contradictions, and just plain failures of liberals just sayin

drugs make more money when they are illegal, opium is huge as fuck but if it was legal it wouldn't be anywhere near as profitiable for the what id call 'illuminati' members of our societies
