You know me, I can't hardly stroll by a good grenade without wanting to hurl myself upon it...
"Why do you have a problem with abortion in the first trimester?"
- While it seems to have been murdered the past two years - science.
- You can avoid the risk 100%. Ask Nancy Reagan - Just say no
- Condoms, birth control
- Morning after pill
- Adoption
So let us alleviate the bloviating and cut to the quick: Given the above science - should women be obligated, i.e. forced, to control their bodies based on the available science else suffer the consequences of their actions? BTW: at this point yo have to say yes, if you are using tactics such as the below set.
" If a person believes in the right to bear arms and speak freely, if he believes in the right not to wear a mask during a pandemic, why does he believe the government should restrict a woman's right to do what she wants with her body?"
Cute-ish non-sequitur, but here goes:
The US Constitution and The Bill of Rights
- Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness
- #2 - A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
- #10 - The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
Those things actually are listed in a straight forward way and have been for over 250 years. The government, by which you mean Federal, is NOT restricting anything. What the Federal government is saying in the purportedly leaked DRAFT is it is not a federal issue.
4th grade US Civics refresher: We are a Constitutional Republic - not a Democracy.
BTW: I wrote a decent Do the Math on this topic in another thread on why mathematically, it should be handled at the State level. But I understand why chicken-shits want to force it at the Federal level - so they are not accountable at the personal or State level. That would be chicken-shit politicians, end users and advocates such as yourself (in this discussion) . Ah ghee, golly, wished we could help, but uhhmmm.. it's a Federal law. Nothing we can do about it. The gallery of the faceless and unaccountable.
Questions in return
- Do you have an issue with that?
- Do you think abortion is some new discovery that did not exist before Margaret Sanger created an assembly line for it?
"why do you consider an embryo to be a child?"
You have to decide that for yourself. If unable, try the table. Go and observe a live birth abortion, but ask them to dismember it with dull instruments. Report back on your findings
Gonna end this round with my own question:
So we are in agreement to end:
- Forced child support <-- hand grenade warning, double dawg dare ya
- Mask mandates
- Vaccine mandates
- Forced testing
- Forced learning
Questions for the pro lifers. Why do you have a problem with abortion in the first trimester? If a person believes in the right to bear arms and speak freely, if he believes in the right not to wear a mask during a pandemic, why does he believe the government should restrict a woman's right to do what she wants with her body? If you're going to say it's because she's killing her baby, why do you consider an embryo to be a child? Where do you draw the line? No condoms, like what the Catholic Church preaches? No Plan B?
