it shows a serious attempt of a state to demonstrate how rediculous they are…

Toddling at 9 months is early, but not remarkable. Protesting high costs of energy and throwing stones at the authorities is.

if every unborn individual were given a hand gun, but no gun “safety” class, it might turn out to be the method of birth control all could accept.

At one point CNN referred to the individual as an “8 month old toddler.”

So the real story is that they’ve got the World’s Youngest Toddler.

John, if every unborn individual had a hand gun, we would see a lot less crime!

In a valiant effort to avoid the slightest appearance of a
“total absurdity” gap with Pakistan, South Carolina’s Senate is proposing a law that would extend the rights conveyed by state’s Stand Your Ground law to unborn fetuses from the moment of conception.

One can only wonder what proposals we would see if Pakistan were continuing unrelenting drone attacks in our own “tribal regions.”

Yea, 18 months could be right.

Just google images for “9 month old” and… well its pretty clear. 9 month olds look like babies. Giant spherical heads, shorter legs, tiny hands, etc. The kid in that picture is a toddler. And, yea standing very steadily.

Here we have the NYT:

Why do you say the child is different in age?

In the video he does stand up. Maybe 16-19 months?

The original story now says nine months old. They do grow up so fast!

Probably a translation error somewhere, but that’s not a 9 month old.

Yeah, maybe the US is not the best place to seek asylum …
