Too many double negatives.
Yeah shouldn’t you be prevented from aborting a gay baby?
Honestly I don’t like this whole thing. The idea that Down’s syndrome babies are protected but other babies are not is wrong also.
In a way it’s the result of all our “equal protection” laws. I guess we shouldn’t be able to abort women or minorities, but white Male babies could be aborted because they don’t have special status.
Whatever is moral or good should apply to all babies.
“EVERY reason to have an abortion is a valid reason,” Colleen McNicholas, a Planned Parenthood abortionist, told the AP.
Guess that settles it.
Eugenics uber alles.
I think this is 'WINNING'!
Maybe scientists will discover the direct correlation between quantity of melanin pigments, especially eumelanin in the epidermis and intelligence levels, thus justify aborting those high in melanin pigments.
Oh, sorry. They already are the greatest proportion of abortions./s
Life is precious.
What is the plain spoken, non-lawyer, translation of this ruling.
Some interesting takeaways from this statement.
Health care services are not a constitutional right. More imaginary rights created by activist jurists.
How does abortion constitute "health care"? It is an elective operation that is only performed at the request of the woman. It is never (99.99%) medically necessary. Nor it is of any health benefit to the (non)mother. Unless convenience is now considered a "health benefit". On the contrary, there is substantial medical evidence that live birth is safer for the woman.
America’s robed mullahs UNITE! Standing O from the EUGENICISTS. The ATTACK on civilization continues.
If you can't ban them all, it's going to be a time frame issue until someone finds a number of weeks that, literally, splits the baby.
I actually had a discussion post taken down at another site for exactly that issue.
Someone asked if parents would terminate a child if there was a genetic test for homosexuality and/or transgenderism, and whether or not it could be prohibited.
I brought up that you can terminate a child for any reasons at any time. You can end a pregnancy because you don’t want a kid right now because of the hassle. And there is no limit on terminating pregnancies because the child is imperfect. The Asian community in Canada and North America are engaging in a modest level of sex selected abortion based on data. A feminist received Twitter backlash for terminating a healthy boy, because she hates men.
If you can kill a kid because you don’t want that gender, if you can kill the kid because it is inconvenient, you can certainly kill it because it is abnormal or diagnosed prenatally as mentally ill.
(That’s probably the part that got my answer deleted and the warning on my account - describing homosexuality as abnormal and transgenderism as a mental illness.)
My firstborn had clubbed feet, now fully corrected, but we ended up with a surgery and a year of casting. There are people who terminate pregnancies for that and hare lip.
I brought up that if you can end the pregnancy for any reason, then ending it because the child is imperfect is considered even more moral. And a child who probably won’t have children and can’t live a normal life is even more justifiable.
I was also flamed for bringing up the fact that liberals have already failed on that point - an estimated 100 million girls have been aborted or just killed after birth for being girls - so don’t argue civil rights when feminists gave their side a pass for two generations.
But they honestly, seriously tried to argue an exception like this in their favor - that you can kill a kid just because it is inconvenient, but not if it is a protected minority.
To be logically consistent, you CANNOT argue that someone can kill a child because it has clubbed feet but not if it has Down’s Syndrome.
That’s why I, as a prolifer who actually had a kid with a birth defect, think this law is indefensible. You can’t have carveouts like this. It isn’t logical and isn’t fair.
You can argue for no abortion or limiting it to the first trimester. You can’t argue “any one any time but not the group I think is beyond criticism”.
