I just cut and paste....

One missing child is ENOUGH!!

Ps.. it took all of 3 seconds for a Google search


Dude- your original post said 800,000 missing. Your rebuttal is only off by 340,000?

I do agree 1 child is one too many. But keep in mind some are 16 or 17 year old run aways that left on their own.

From the article you linked:

5. More than 99% of missing children return home alive.​

(Reuters)

While a missing child is always a scene for concern, the vast amount of child abduction cases in recent years have returned home alive. Many point to technological advancement as a leading reason for this positive indication, as well as greater awareness that quick responses make a difference for the lives of abductees.

Stranger abductions are the only outlier in this hopeful outlook. Studies show that of this small group of children every year, 40% of them are killed by the person who took them.

And

6. Less than 1% of missing children get abducted by strangers.​

(Missing Kids, Reuters)

When it comes to all cases of children reported missing, less than 1% are taken by someone they don’t know. The vast 91% of missing cases are runaways, as child kidnapping statistics show, while family abductions make up 5% of missing children. Based on reports from the FBI over the last ten years, fewer than 350 children were abducted annually by strangers, despite the high profile news coverage of many cases.

And this

7. 57% of children abducted by strangers make it back home.​

(Reuters)

While stranger abductions are more difficult to prevent and intercept, the majority are still returned home alive. Child abduction rates show that since stranger abduction is most often a premeditated act, it involves using techniques to lure the child to come willingly with the perpetrator, only to be victimized later. The nature of this crime makes it much more difficult to catch, especially after more than a few days have passed.

And finally, here’s a little different view from Reuters which appears to be the source of the information in the article you linked:

So. coming from a paper knowledge world. Saw a set of encyclopedias the other day. Kinda wondering about all that.
Thanks for posting, the knowledge. 😆 Wow. As we barely scratch the surface of the possible.
Why are they? Curating.

This is always an interesting topic when it comes to abortion. I'd be willing to bet the majority of those having abortions are the same people most would look at and say something along the lines of "God I hope they don't have children." The flip side that is just teaching them to prevent the pregnancy in the first place, but that would be too much common sense and violate some religious bullshit I'm sure.

So murder is OK if we don't like them, got it. Could you define religious bullshit?

Religious bullshit = it is against certain religions to wear a condom.

Where did I ever say "Murder"? To that point, HOMICIDE can definitely be VERY justified, and I'd bet you would actually agree with me on that point.

In the case of an women who is "pregnant", they have pills that will kill the "baby" before they even have a heartbeat or formed cells... Think morning after pill.

But great example about how any discussion on the matter leads to overblown emotional responses.

Not overblown, your own words say kill a baby?

Abstinence is 100% in preventing pregancy, is that "bullshit"?

You have a very interesting interpretation of what I wrote. Please show me where I said "Kill a baby" or "Murder"?

While you are at it, show me where I said anything about Abstinence being bullshit.

I think you are so worked up over a very simple statement that you can't help but interject your own words into what I have typed. Which honestly, wasn't much.
