Liberals Inc: Just bake the cake, bigot! Don't use your religious beliefs as a reason to discriminate against a customer for being gay.

Also Liberals, Inc: Twitter and Facebook are private companies and should be allowed to deplatform people for having "hateful" opinions.

Conservatives, Inc: It is ridiculous that Twitter and Facebook can deplatform us for having the views we have.

Also Conservatives, Inc: The baker should be allowed to deny service to someone for being homosexual. I mean they have religious beliefs that come into conflict.

Liberals- make guns illegal so we can stop these shootings. If we make abortion illegal people will just have illegal ones.

The right- if we make guns illegal criminals will still get them. We should make abortion illegal to stop abortions.

Uh, not exactly the same things being compared. It looks the same comparison, but first, this would be comparing criminals to normal people. Criminals don't give a shit about the law, that's why they'll get illegal guns. They do it already. Also, keeping guns legal, you're not legalizing murder. Making abortions legal, well, that's exactly the controversy about abortions, people against them see them as murder. Your logic seems correct, the argument that turning something illegal will not stop it looks the same. But one of the actors is someone who makes a living breaking the law. The law doesn't matter to him, this law would affect only law abiding citizens. We can't say the same about the other side, not every future mom would break the law.

I suppose you are right.
My point pretty much is that both side seem to think becasue we make something illegal people won't do it. But both sides admit this isn't true. But no they are not the same thing.

Yep, I got it, but I felt the urge to point the differences between the situations, maybe because my own bias. Honestly, I can't tell. I look at it and my mind steers to the differences.
