You asked me not to reply to you, yet you are baiting me. Why can't we have peace? I've always liked you very much. I didn't agree with you, so what?I hope you realize that it's not so important how many likes you get than the importance of your truth
I came home exhausted last night and thought the word was 'not viable.' I goofed because I was tired, that's all. Meant that if a non-viable baby was born the hospital would do nothing to save it, which is not the same thing as deliberately killing it. Sorry for the mix-up.
I wouldn't. Women aren't brood mares. A woman shouldn't be forced to be pregnant & give birth to to supply and fill the orders for adoption needs. Too many kids wind up in permanent foster care and don't get the fairy tale end.
There were some nights I wouldn’t have counted on mine either!
It's such a step backwards though when time is of paramount importance. It reminds me of when I was a teenager and there was all that worry and expense trying to find a free state.
I live on the side of the tracks where tens-of-thousands of men and women who don't give a crap about the kids they have with multiple partners also live. Right here at my apartments are 2 women, one who has 5 kids, another who has 7, and neither of them is 30 yet. All these kids have been taken and returned by CPS three times and more. Still, I'm not in favor of terminating a pregnancy in the final trimester. I am very much in favor of better prevention; a better pill or whatever, completely free to anyone. I also wish there was a law that required sterilization for any man or woman declared incapable of raising children due to physical abuse (of children), drug addiction proven resistant to treatment, mental illnesses that cause violent behavior, and habitual criminality.
No.
There's no way of knowing how far some of these states will go, Tish. Presumably if they're outlawing abortions that will also include morning after pills and other medical interventions.
And who do you think will end up paying for these trips? Surely you don’t think the company will pay for these trips from their shareholders payouts, or do you?
Clarence Thomas has suggested a ban on contraceptives , a ban on same sex marriage, a ban on transgendered people. Oddly enough(not too oddly) he of course stays away from a ban on interracial marriage.
As I see it, nothing more than theater! I'm not moved or impressed. Results only come from voting self-interest. What good is all the screaming and anguish when come November they will either not vote or otherwise support the anti-abortion party because of tunnel vision and/or short memory?
It's all up to states now, so pro-choice people can do more targeted protests and maybe even vote! They can vote out anti-choice state congresspeople and governors and vote for candidates who respect the separation of church and state.
A fetus doesn't feel any pain, nor is it sentient, nor can it scream.
