The Democrat Utopia

Well that's in fact what you did, managing to stay away when the 99.9% of non-transgender shooting sprees were occurring.

Reducing the abortion debate to drunken sorority girl orgies is definitely on-brand for you.

I figured you'e have some disdain for my extremely pragmatic and humane positions. 

Imagine the US embraced the moral compass of Northern California.

...because conservatives are actively trying to make abortion illegal? Because the Supreme Court just overturned Roe v Wade? 

Banning abortion kills women and criminalizes doctors. It's an extreme step that is none of this nation's business. The decision to abort a pregnancy should only be between the woman and her healthcare provider.

Thought they made it a state decision and not an outright ban?

So I teach a class where we cover sexual assault and I think a lot of guys have NO IDEA how many times girls will just "do it" because they feel that is the only way to get out of a situation that they feel scared of.

"f#&%ing is okay, f#&%ing people that you don't plan to spend the rest of your life with is okay."

SMH.

So you have only had sex with one girl?  Good for you!  That is awesome.

Too busy playing college basketball to concern myself with the debauchery.  

f#&%ing is okay, f#&%ing people that you don't plan to spend the rest of your life with is okay.  Abortion is hardly used as birth control, it is used as a last resort for most people.  

This is your moral baseline.  Glad we're in opposite camps.

Yeah, college athletes never f#&%.  Good call.

I dunno, man. I grew up and went to college in Nebraska, then moved to Northern California. I still spend a lot of time with family and friends in Nebraska, and have Republican friends and fond memories in both states. 

I moved to San Francisco for career reasons, and defended my home state against the coastal elites by claiming Nebraskans were nicer, more honest, more pragmatic, and much better drivers than the smug Californians. Over the years I realized this wasn't exactly true, even if it felt right to say. In the ways that really count, my San Francisco neighborhood had more small town values than I grew up with in Nebraska; I walked to the butcher shop, the hardware store, the liquor store, and the bakery, where they knew my name and my preferences. My fellow Nebraskan and I lived in a building with six flats, and came to socialize with each one. Good folks. When I moved to equally liberal Marin County to raise a family, I met plenty of other people of good character and community values.  To this day I can't find any significant difference in the pragmatism, humanity, morality, and niceness between the people of California and the people of Nebraska. Our state politics may seem more silly, but it's not like Nebraska didn't veer off into extremes and identity politics of its own.

But that's anecdotal. If you really wanted to find a moral compass you'd need to get data-driven. If your measure is teen-pregnancy, drug use, divorce, education levels, and reliance on the federal government, you're not gonna like what the red states are turning out.
