Guess we'll have to agree to disagree on when life begins; my point was an FDA regulated DRUG is available to a 12 year old child without the need for an ID, much less a prescription or parent's involvement, but a can of Rustoleum required an ID.
Since I've seen others post that you can buy paint without an ID at stores other than Home Depot, I am lead to believe that it is a store policy. Thus, your comparison to the availability of Plan B due to federal policy is faulty and irrelevant. Apples and bananas.
Are you seriously implying that life begins before the sperm makes contact with the egg? Because if that is truly your position, you're probably gonna have to turn yourself in for mass murder.
