    I guess soon, when you break-up with someone, the state might charge you with killing the idea of the children you might have had.

          You know how I can confidently say that anyone who is against the right to choose hates women?

          Because doesn’t matter how much they claim to love children, and how many shenanigans they pull like this one, I know for a fact that not a single one of them would ever in their whole life even entertain the idea of charging a man who masturbated with mass murder.

            Yeah but that man only releases HALF-babies by the millions. So that’s the loophole, right?

              I hate to break this to you but for some men in these states those sperms will only count as 3/10ths of a baby.

              For those that can’t do fractions: That’s 1/2 of 3/5ths.

          So if I jerk off on the firehouse steps can I claim I’m just using the Safe Harbor law?

        No, it’s probably sooner then you think.
