No, because a funny little thing called everyone having assault rifles to keep themselves from getting robbed would happen.

Shootings would skyrocket, and at the end of the day everyone would be much less safe.

So let's not do that.


Wait... so you mean by legalizing crimes to prevent people from getting hurt while carrying them out, we only end up making things worse? But you said that abortion being legal helps people...

The point of my statement was, of course, that things become illegal in the first place because they harm people. Advocating they be made legal so those who suffer from the crimes won't suffer is idiotic, as it just makes the situation worse. It applies to robbery and it applies to abortion as well.

When abortion was legalized in the US, people started having abortions by the millions. This was a huge increase of what happened when it was illegal. That's over a million humans killed every year, and over a million women who risk abortion related complications (including death) in the US alone.

But don't take my word for it, here's what one of the founders of NARAL has to say:

Dr. Bernard Nathanson

We persuaded the media that the cause of permissive abortion was a liberal enlightened, sophisticated one. Knowing that if a true poll were taken, we would be soundly defeated, we simply fabricated the results of fictional polls. We announced to the media that we had taken polls and that 60% of Americans were in favour of permissive abortion. This is the tactic of the self-fulfilling lie. Few people care to be in the minority. We aroused enough sympathy to sell our program of permissive abortion by fabricating the number of illegal abortions done annually in the U.S. The actual figure was approaching 100,000 but the figure we gave to the media repeatedly was 1,000,000. Repeating the big lie often enough convinces the public. The number of women dying from illegal abortions was around 200-250 annually. The figure we constantly fed to the media was 10,000. These false figures took root in the consciousness of Americans convincing many that we needed to crack the abortion law. Another myth we fed to the public through the media was that legalising abortion would only mean that the abortions taking place illegally would then be done legally. In fact, of course, abortion is now being used as a primary method of birth control in the U.S. and the annual number of abortions has increased by 1500% since legalisation.
